My personality

My story

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

$50 Adoption fee! Why so low? Yakima County is spilling over with stray and dumped dogs. Our goal is to get dogs into the right homes ASAP so we can help other dogs in need. It's not about the money, it's about finding the right home for these pups! Copper was picked up by Selah Animal Control. He’s been a little starved for attention, so loves to be by our side. He’s been a sweetheart with the other dogs, patient with the puppies, and gives the little dogs space. He was reluctant to get up on the couch and bed with us. He hadn’t spent much time in a house. Copper is ready to be someone’s best friend. He’s such a happy, chill dog. This dog is located in Selah, WA. PetFinder allows multiple postings of the same animal as long as the postings are 100 miles apart from each other. This way we can reach far and wide to find the perfect home for this dog. If driving to Selah is difficult for you, we will do our best to find a rescue partner to meet you halfway.
