My story

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

Meet Cooper, a young, exuberant dog, who is ever so sweet. He has two paw print markings on his side to show just how special he is. His tail wags the moment you talk to him.

Cooper was found abandoned and skinny on the side of the road, with a scar on his neck from an embedded collar. While it appears, Cooper hasn't had the best life, you would never know it from his appreciative nature and friendly disposition. He is working on gaining weight. Despite his ravenous appetite, he'd rather stop mid bite to get pets and check in with his foster parents. It also seems that he has never had a bed before, but he's really enjoying sinking down in the comfort of a soft bed for a good snooze. He has done well with other resident dogs of all sizes, even a small reactive terrier. Cooper is learning to walk on a leash and to sit and wait (rather than jump) for attention. He’s been a quick learner! He's also been willing to sit calmly in the back seat during car rides. While he is still fairly new to his foster family, thus far he has proven to be non-destructive and able to be on his own, although he would much rather be right by your side.

Cooper loves people and is ready to follow you anywhere or run after a kicked soccer ball. Despite his past, he is still a happy boy exuding an infectious energy that brightens the day. He would make a delightful addition to any family.
