Story
Copper, a 9-yr old heeler mix, is looking for a new forever home. He knows basic commands like sit and shake, and is still playful but loves to lay on the couch and nap with you too. Copper gets along with other dogs, and doesn’t mind cats inside but is more curious about them outside. We think a home with older children who have dog experience would be best, as he's getting a little feisty in his old age. Copper has developed a bit of loud noise anxiety, and his foster family is working through it with him. He's an awesome dog looking for a place to chill. As are all EARS dogs, he is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm tested and on monthly preventatives for heartworm and flea/tick.If you'd like add Copper to your family, please submit an adoption application via our website, www.effinghamanimalrescue.com.

The relatives lived in the country where he liked to run around with other dogs. There were cats there also, but we have not seen how he does with cats or little children. He is calm with people he has been with for a short time. Bleu is very well house-trained and crate-trained. He is white with rust-brown leopard-like spots. He is very intelligent and active. He likes to sleep in the same bed with people. He likes attention, petting and walks. Regarding his weakness, he likes to get in the garbage and will steal food, if he thinks you will be out of the room long enough for him to get it. He is a good guard dog. He will notify you when people are around the house. We have never seen him hurt anyone or another animal, but he is aggressive toward some strangers. We let new pe
