My story

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

Cooper is a wonderful, happy dog, who enjoys being with his people. He enjoys playing ball, hiking, riding in the car, hanging out in the backyard, watching us work, and training to be a good dog citizen with us. He trots around the house wagging his tail and welcoming the day with an “aaaaaaerrohh”.

However, he is shy and wary so his trust was earned slowly. Cooper is undersocialized and can be fearful around new people, especially those that come into his home. Unexpected or new objects (like packages) and excessive activity make him anxious. When overwhelmed he goes to his safe place and when ready cautiously checks it out.

For this reason, Cooper needs an adopter who will be patient, socialize him, continue training and build his confidence and to allow him to be his best doggie self. That person will be rewarded with the greatest Bestie in Cooper.
