My story

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

Fenced-in Yard Required

 

Cooper is a playful and loving mix (49% Sheltie, 16% Aussie, 12% Collie) with a personality dominated by his Aussie traits. He thrives on outdoor play, indoor cuddles and being part of the household action. Cooper loves toys, treats, learning new tricks, and solving puzzles. A physical fenced-in yard is essential for this energetic boy.

 

He enjoys the company of both people and dogs but has shown a preference for smaller, non-bulldog breeds. Cooper does well with dog-savvy cats—he may chase them but means no harm. While friendly, he’s protective of his space and cautious with strangers, requiring proper introductions.

 

Cooper’s ideal owner has experience with herding breeds, time to dedicate to training, and a home environment where he won’t be left alone often. He’s strong on a leash and may lunge at other dogs or bikers, so continued training is key. His crate is his safe haven and must come with him to his new home.

 

Resilient, clever and full of love, Cooper is waiting for a forever family who will embrace his quirks and give him the care and attention he deserves. If you’re ready for a devoted companion, Cooper is ready for you!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs please go directly to www.almosthomeohio.org for an application. Once the application is submitted, our adoption team can discuss the information on the application with you to determine if one of our dogs would be a good fit for your home. Lastly, a home visit will be done either by one of our volunteers or another reputable rescue volunteer in your area. We do adopt out of state, but it is up to the adopter to come meet and take the dog home. Sound like a lot to go through for a dog? It really isn't as complicated as it seems and it's the best way to ensure a good match. Please contact adoptions@almosthomeohio.org with any additional questions you may have after reviewing the information on our website.

More about this rescue

Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio is made up of a small (but growing) group of enthusiastic volunteers who want to make a difference in the lives of homeless dogs. Our background is with purebred collies and collie mixes but on occasion, we have other "family friendly" breeds. If you are searching for a collie, we'd like to help you find a wonderful companion that fits your family's lifestyle. All of our dogs are fully vaccinated and are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. They have also been tested and are negative for heartworm and are on heartworm preventative.
