About Cooper

Cooper is the most incredible 3-4 year old Mountain Cur/Lab male mix that weighs 46 pounds and is pure love and kindness. This boy unfortunately had a rough start to life and arrived at his current foster home 5 days ago a very shy, scared and withdrawn boy. We thought it was going to be a lot of work to build a bond with him and get him to be comfortable not only with us but with the idea that not all people are scary/will hurt him. Within only a couple of days this amazing pup has done a complete turn-around with his personality. He gives kisses, bops us on the hands when he wants pets and follows us around EVERYWHERE. He is completely housebroken, walks perfectly on the leash, not destructive at all and is fine being left out at home alone. Cooper is low energy but loves being outside and really enjoys his walks, hikes and trips to the dog park. Cooper is good with others dogs, even though he is still a little shy at first. He is good with the cat in his foster home but does like to follow/chase her around when she runs away. I would suggest a home without a cat. Cooper would be an incredible addition to a home with another dog or would be fine being the only animal to be loved in the house. He may be better in a household with older kids because he does get startled by loud noises. However, he has never shown aggression so I think he would be fine in any situation as long as the kids are taught how to give him space initially and allow him approach them. Cooper has so much love and life to give and would love a family to call his own.
