About Cooper

Cooper is a 4-year-old lab/beagle mix with a sturdy, medium build—he comes in at around 50 pounds, with stocky short legs and a curled tail that makes him pretty memorable. Originally rescued from Tulum, Mexico as a puppy, Cooper’s adapted well to family life. He’s got plenty of energy to burn, loves getting outside for long walks, and always welcomes a good mental challenge—whether it’s learning new tricks or playing scent games. Despite his enthusiasm, Cooper calms down nicely at home, happy to sprawl on the couch or curl up in your lap after activity. He’s sociable, bonds quickly, and thrives on both attention and structure. Cooper would be happiest with a loving, active family willing to keep his mind and body engaged. He is great with children and gets along well with other dogs. A securely fenced yard is required (no electric or Fido fences allowed for his safety). He’s neutered, house trained, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
