Cooper is a large, bicolor foxhound with a gentle personality who truly doesn’t belong cooped up in a small condo. What he needs most is a secure privacy-fenced yard where he can stretch his legs and enjoy the outdoors. At seven years old, he’s healthy, neutered, up to date on all shots and preventatives, and housebroken. Cooper comes from the South, originally saved from a kill shelter, and is now in foster care in NJ—he’s done remarkably well, but it’s clear he misses having a place to call his own and the steady attention of a devoted person or couple. Easygoing in the house, dog-friendly with most friendly pups his size, and known for being food-motivated. Cooper walks well on leash, sleeps quietly in his crate at night, and delights in lounging in the sun and sniffing on long walks. He’s gentle and playful, never puts up a fuss, and takes real comfort in routine and affection—a mature person, couple, or family with rescue dog experience would suit him best. A fenced yard is important for his happiness and well-being. Video chats and in-person meets can be arranged for seriously interested adopters in NJ. He’d love to settle in with someone who appreciates a hound’s curious, loving nature and is ready to show him what it means to finally be home. Adoption involves an application and basic home ID process. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
