TL;DR Summary

Coco, a young dog believed to be a spaniel and chocolate lab mix, is undergoing alcohol withdrawal at an animal shelter in Plymouth, England, after his owner and canine friend both died. Coco's companion died after both dogs became "quickly unwell" and started to suffer from "fits." Coco spent four weeks sedated to help with his withdrawal symptoms and reduce the risk of further fits. The shelter said that now, Coco is "out of danger" and has weaned off his medication, but he's not yet ready for adoption as he's still very anxious at times.
