My story

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

Are you looking for an obedience trained, crate-trained, housebroken, loves to go on adventures, loves kids, All American Dog??

If so meet Copper. He is the quintessential dog of dogs!

He is about 3 years old (young but out of that puppy phase) and at his last vet visit weighed in at 55 pounds. He is a true “Heinz 57” mix of a dog - with so many breeds it’s hard to pick just a few to name! We think Copper probably has some Australian Shepherd, along with several other breeds including possibly Belgian Shepherd. Greyhound or Carolina dog.

Copper is a beautiful and happy boy. He loves all creatures and people. Copper loves to play with his doggy friends especially tug-of-war with the big rope toys and will do wonderful at a daycare or dog park with other active and playful dogs.Copper would love to be a hiking or running buddy.
He also loves two-legged playmates and is wonderful with kids.

He has been waiting for a family far too long and in fact, he’s lucky to be alive! Copper came to us from the shelter at a time when he was minutes from losing his life because he had an upper respiratory infection.
Interested in becoming a forever home for Copper? Fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we don't go any further without an application.

We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting Copper.
We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and Copper the perfect forever home, and appreciate you working with us.
For immediate consideration, please attach your application to the initial inquiry to help us expedite the process.

Our adoption fee is $525. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses.

All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed.

Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!
