My name is Cooper!

Cooper is a Mountain Cur mix (lab/pit/boxer) and is believed to have been born around January of 2017. We adopted him from OHS in August 2017. He loves to play fetch, go on walks and cuddle up on the couch. Over the last few years Cooper’s interaction with other dogs has become limited due to our growing family. He walks well on leash unless he comes across other dogs. At which point he will be on high alert and will crouch or stalk as he approaches other dogs and will bark/growl if the other dog reacts to him. With children (ages 1 and 3) in our small 800sqft house, Cooper has grown anxious. On Sunday 10/20 he bit our 3 year old resulting in upper lip stitches. Although we have theories as to what exactly happened, we did not see the incident, but suspect Cooper was provoked. He has not shown aggression towards any human and does not have food aggression. Cooper is a sweet, loving dog that would be best in a home without small kids.
