Pet-Peeves:
Cold, windy days...Strangers...Not being able to see or get to me

Favorite Toy:
A little "mouse" cat toy, a small blue bunny rabbit, a blue & green bone-shaped plush toy he got for Xmas

Favorite Food:
When I first got him he was a very finicky eater, now he eats pretty much anything I put on his plate at dinnertime. He likes to share my popcorn

Favorite Walk:
Technically I'm doing the walking when he's being carried around the house. Or else it's running back and forth at the fence, barking at strangers

Best Tricks:
Escape artist- only a closed door will keep him in or out. He can even move heavy chairs out of his way with a little paw!

Arrival Story:
My father was about to drive off and almost ran over this little guy in the street. He was shivering and scared and had no collar on, and he was underweight. He was given over to my care and he latched onto me before I knew what had happened, so I guess you could say he adopted me.

Bio:
Koko instantly fit into our family of dogs, which we thought no easy task. We had 2 Shelties (male/female) and a Healer (female) and they accepted him in instantly. In fact, the female Sheltie at the time was still a puppy and her and Koko became best friends. They were wrestling and chasing each other around the house the very next day. When no one came to claim him, we decided to keep Koko on and he has been a member of the family ever since. The best the vet could guess was that he was somewhere between 1 or 1 and a half years old.
