Texas family rescues lost dog from pond
The Stanley family was out fishing at a pond near their home in San Antonio when they noticed a small dog in the bushes. After rescuing the dog and bringing it home for a bath and food, the family reunited the 19-year-old pup with its owner.
A New York-based dog known for lovingly shadowing humans is looking for a home — for the second time.
CoCo is a nearly 6-year-old hound mix in East Hampton, New York, and was recently brought back to the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons (ARF) in the hopes that he will secure a new family.
CoCo was adopted as a puppy but was returned to ARF after his family decided they could no longer take care of him.
The 65-pound dog is affectionate and cuddly, and the rescue organization says his name should be "Shadow."

He knows basic commands and can walk well on a leash, the organization said.
It is preferred that CoCo join a house with children over the age of 12, and this friendly pooch is house-trained.

CoCo is known to be selective about his canine friends and is considered "cat curious," according to the ARF organization.

Given time, CoCo will warm up to other animals, the shelter added.
Most of all, however, CoCo is considered a dedicated wingman wanting to be by a human’s side at all times, ARF noted.
