My name is
Copper!

I adopted Copper from the Sarasota Humane Society in September 2024. Based on his obedience and response to instruction, it seems like he was in a home before then. He is 4 years old (birthday in Sep).

At his core, Copper is an energetic cuddler. He thrives on loving human interaction. He's not one to play with toys, but will definitely run around or wrestle with you. Like most dogs, he's a huge fan of walks/runs and hanging outside. He follows basic commands, is reward-driven, able to learn, and does best with positive reinforcement training.

Copper's biggest challenge is aggression toward male guests. He does fine meeting people outside and away from home but is territorial when unfamiliar males enter the house. This is trainable.

Ideally, Copper's new home would have more human life so he would not be alone as much. He'd love to be with a family who can provide more love and attention. Outdoor space is ideal.
