About Marlie and Coco

This adorable elderly pair are Marlie and Coco. We don’t have the full history of their lives, but what we do know is that 2 months ago they were being given away on Facebook and prior to this they had at least 4 different homes. When we found out, this broke our hearts. They are both the sweetest girls and deserve a loving home where they will have stability. Marlie, the cream Chihuahua, is 11 years old. She sadly has a heart murmur but despite this, she is still an active girl who loves a walk and curling up on your lap. She is the most confident out of the pair and will do her best sit in return for a piece of cheese. Coco is 9 years old, she is also very sweet but can be a little nervous at times and will shy away when feeling unsure. Poor Coco does require surgery to remove a mammary mass, Foal will continue to support any vet care she may need post op. We will explain their health concerns in full details with prospective adopters and ensure you that you will have our support, to ensure the girls get what they need. In their previous home they did have accidents, so will need a new family who are willing to be patient with toilet training. All these ladies really need is a loving family with a cosy sofa where they can snuggle up with you. They do enjoy their walks and they may bark at the odd dog but have assessed well when meeting other dogs and we would consider homing them with canine companions. Due to Coco’s nervousness we are seeking a family with no young children. They really deserve the perfect retirement home, considering they have had such an unstable life, they are very loving and will make an adorable addition to a new family. If you could give Marlie and Coco the retirement home they need, please get in touch with our dog team.
