After hearing about the plight of CoCo, GSNCR contacted GALT (the Greyhound Adoption League of Texas Inc.) and then made a donation to the Angel's Stray Fund, to assist with the medical care of Coco.  Below are excerpts from the time she was discovered, to her most recent health report.  To find out more, feel free to follow the links below.

CoCo is a petite, 3-year-old black female, born September 13, 2003. Her sire is D's Tootsie Pop, with Wigwam Wag as her great-grand sire, and her dam is RW's Terra. CoCo is the "G" pup and was not individually registered with the NGA. Wednesday, July 25, she was found as a stray near Ardmore, Oklahoma. She weighed 44 pounds and was in very bad shape when found, and her recovery has been quite remarkable. CoCo is now a playful, playful happy girl with a lot to offer her forever home. CoCo is small animal and cat tolerant.

CoCo came down with a very bad upper respiratory infection, chest rattling, coughing and lots of green mucous in her nose. Her vet placed her on antibiotics and cough medication. Following several days of treatment, she began to show signs of getting over the worst of it. With regular meals, she  gained weight.

The photograph at left was taken just over a month following CoCo's arrival at GALT.  CoCo responded tremendously to treatment, and had begun to fill out in all the right places.
