Coton Rescue Dogs Equal Unconditional Love

Coton rescue dogs are very special. Well, all dogs are extraordinary - every single one of them, but giving your heart and home to a homeless pet can be extra special.

Unfortunately, as the Coton de Tulear becomes more popular, more and more of them will find their way in shelters or rescues.

So many of our visitors have found their beloved Cotons through rescue organizations, shelters, or even wandering the streets, and have generously shared their stories and photos with us.

These rescue stories often epitomize unconditional love. After all, rescue dogs don't come with a full history and you have to be prepared emotionally and physically to deal with whatever issues may come up.

Do you have a question about your rescue dog? Or do you just want to tell us how special your rescue pet is? We love hearing these wonderful stories of how you found your dog so please share your photos and stories with us.
