Cote the American Dingo, the Dog of the Day
Name: Cote
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male Breed: American Dingo
Home: Arizona, USA
 
   Cote came into my life when he was three months old. He came into the shelter I volunteered at as a stray and was completely feral. He would screech when someone tried to touch him or he would dart and hide. I sat in the yard with him for an hour until he finally came and laid on my lap, however he still wouldn't let me touch him.

     He went to foster for about a week before I went to go take him to an adoption day. While there he cowed from every person who walked by him, ending up under my leg the first hour of the day. When he finally crawled into my lap to escape the people, I decided he was mine. He went home with me after that and after a week we were inseparable. He and I have since continued our strong bond. If I stand, he is ready to go, if I am coming home, he will know before I am even home (often driving his puppy-sitter crazy), and he has also become my emotional support dog as he knows my emotions more than even I do sometimes. Cote is also currently going to school to be a therapy dog as he adores kids of any species.

     For his "All Anerican" pictures, Cote was at the 4th of July Parade last year and the 4th of July Coaster Races. The one with the glasses is the parade, the other is the coasters.

     Cote and I live in Arizona; he definitely blends with the desert sand here! He is very vocal, and has to yip when I get home to let me know he missed me. He will also howl with me and on occasion will talk back to me and then turn it into a game. He loves running and hiking but absolutely hates bath time and will look at me pitifully the entire time, but loves playing in rivers and lakes. I love him very much, quirks and all!
