My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello doggy lovers! I am Cooper, and I have lived with my brother, Rooster, ever since we were born in late 2019. Rooster and I need to be adopted together cuz we get scared when we’re apart, and I have to make sure Rooster is okay. We don’t even like going on walks by ourselves! Our last family couldn`t keep us anymore cuz we were too `spensive and their big dogs didn`t like us very much. We were really sad at first, but our friends at Safe Haven are helping us to build confidence and meet new people friends AND doggy friends! Our Safe Haven pals say we`re just like Spiderman cuz we figured out how to climb chain link fences. They say that we`ll need to find a family with a very secure yard because we are very curious and like to explore. I guess they are right, but we would MUCH rather climb into a lap than over a fence! Can we climb into yours?
Love and tail wags,
Cooper

Note from Safe Haven: Cooper and Rooster are looking for a calm family that will be patient with them while they settle in.
