Please check here for updated adoption hours. A bit about me:Cooper was found wandering alone around a school before he was brought in by a passerby.
My ideal home:Cooper is a young, enthusiastic dog that would do best in a household without young children under 5. We know he will thrive with daily mental and physical activities. To keep him happily engaged and exercised, we recommend long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and fun hide-and-seek games, along with plenty of physical exercise. With the right activities, his energy and enthusiasm will be positively directed!
Good with other pets?Cooper was eager to meet other dogs his assessments, so he might get along well with new doggy friends with proper introductions and socialization. We always suggest slow introductions with resident pets, and we offer a 2-week trial adoption to help you see if Cooper is a good fit with your family. Since ACC doesn't test with cats, we're not sure how he'd do with feline friends, but we can help you with tips and advice!
Good with kids?Since Cooper came to us as a stray, we don't have much information about his past. For now, we think he'll do best in a home without young children under 5, as he's still learning his basic manners. With a bit of patience and training, he'll be a wonderful addition to a loving family!
How is my health?Cooper has some health concerns that our staff will discuss with you.
How are my leash manners?Cooper pulls moderately on the leash and has been a little reactive to dogs on walks.
What is my behavior assessment?Cooper has been assessed as a Level 3 dog. Cooper would need an experienced owner that can help him with his fearfulness. Cooper should never be forced to approach anything that he is uncomfortable with or submit to handling. With patience and understanding, he'll make a wonderful companion.
A volunteer writes: A hot day but what a cool dog! Cooper is a photographer's dream, posing patiently, going through "sit," "paw" and "down" like a pro. He is such a good boy we could've stayed there out on the grass if we had the time. Cooper is a fine companion at the park, being curious about all the activities around us, distracted only when spotting a canine friend pass by us. He loves treats and has the smoothest snuggles. Come meet him today!
