About Cooper

Meet Cooper, a young mixed-breed dog with a sweet nature and an engaging personality. He may take a moment to adjust to new situations, but with calm, positive interactions, he opens up quickly. Previously, Cooper enjoyed agility training, which boosted his confidence and provided him with a sense of purpose. To help him thrive, Cooper would do best in a patient home that supports his growth. It's ideal for him to have a family that spends ample time at home while he develops his coping skills, and we recommend a household without young children. However, kids aged ten and older would be fine. He has previously loved a kitty in his home, so he gets along well with feline friends. Cooper is neutered and has his vaccinations up to date.
