Meet Cooper, an adult dog with a heart full of curiosity and courage. He`s a proud, independent soul with a stubborn streak that only makes him more endearing. He`s got a knack for exploration, often seen sniffing out new corners of his surroundings, using his 66 pounds to encourage you to keep up. His character is a testament to his resilience as he quietly accepts his situation of being in a shelter after being found as a stray. Cooper`s interest in other dogs makes him a social butterfly, always eager to make new friends but we haven`t seen him interact with his shelter neighbors yet nor children. He seems to be house trained too, which is a bonus for any potential adopter. Cooper`s spirit is truly unique and he`s ready to bring joy and adventure into a loving home. He weighs 66 pounds so there`s a lot to love. He occasionally enjoys lap time and a bit of cuddling. Adopt Cooper and let his brave heart be the newest addition to your family. (tw 11/9/2024)
