It is with a heavy heart that we share with all of you the passing of one of our DogsHome alums.

Our dear Cocoa passed away peacefully on New Year’s Day at the age of 15 with her loving dads right there beside her.

Cocoa came to us in April of 2016 at the age of 8 through no fault of her own. The passing away of her first pet parent led to her being cared for by her second family until they were no longer able to do so.

I met Cocoa & her family at Marsh Creek where she would now be entrusted to us to find her forever home. And a little more than a year later, May 3, 2017, in fact, just a few days before her 9th birthday we found Cocoa her forever home. As a rescue, there is nothing more rewarding than finding the perfect match for the dogs in our care.

Jim Comerford & Mike Swalina, we will be forever grateful to both of you for taking such wonderful care of our little princess for the past 7 years. We know you are broken hearted and we are so deeply sorry for your loss. Cocoa was so very fortunate …..we were so fortunate to find you. Cocoa knew she was truly loved. ❤️

As for me dear Cocoa, Auntie M will always cherish our car rides together as we headed for our walks at Marsh Creek……for that’s where it all began back on that spring day in 2016.

Rest in Peace little princess.
We love you.
❤️🐾🌈
