If you’re looking for a big, fun-loving goofball, Coco is your gal! Sweet, sweet Coco has a condition called masticatory muscle myositis (MMM). This is an immune disorder that causes Coco’s immune system to identify her own muscle tissue as foreign and attack it.

As a result, Coco’s head is shaped a little differently and she cannot open her jaw all of the way. This doesn’t stop her from being a happy-go-lucky girl with a voracious appetite!

Coco loves to play and loves all things food. She is on a special homemade diet with lots of meat so she has plenty of protein to keep her strength up. Additionally, she takes a daily steroid to help with her chewing and ability to eat.

If you couldn’t tell by looking at her, you wouldn’t realize anything is even wrong! She loves to play and loves all people. She would make a fantastic companion for any home that’s looking for a best friend and forever companion! She loves walks, and especially enjoys visiting botanical gardens.
