Hi there! Coconut here.
Terrier energy: strong opinions, a real motor, and a heart three sizes too big.
Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.
I do come with a few special needs, but please don't let that scare you off — I just need a patient friend, and I pay it back tenfold.
Born and (almost) raised right here in Oakland.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Thanksgiving — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.
Anyway, thank you for reading all the way to the end. Not everyone does, and I noticed. — Coconut

About Coconut
Coconut – Gentle, Sensitive, and Sweet Coconut is a 4-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix weighing 54 pounds. She's a sensitive, affectionate girl who may need a little time to feel comfortable, but blossoms into a sweet and engaging companion once she trusts you. A gentle soul: Coconut can be nervous in unfamiliar environments, but she gradually relaxes when given time and space. In a quieter setting, she enjoys engaging with her person and exploring at her own pace. Sweet and affectionate: Once she warms up, Coconut leans into pets and affection and enjoys gentle interactions with her people. Smart and treat motivated: She takes treats gently and responds to "sit", "touch", "paw"and "paws up". She especially enjoys fun treat-finding games, making positive-reinforcement training a great way to build her confidence. Dog-friendly: Coconut plays gently with other dogs in doggie playgroup and could enjoy having a well-matched canine companion. Coconut would thrive with patient adopters who allow her to approach at her own pace as she builds confidence. She would do best with appropriately matched dogs or as a solo dog with appropriate dog friends.
