Story
Meet Cooper, an adorable 1-year-old, 61-pound mix of Golden Retriever, Poodle, and Missouri mutt. This sweet boy spent the first year of his life living in an outdoor pen with his three littermates, and transitioning to life in a home is still a new and exciting experience for him. In just seven weeks, Cooper has made incredible progress, but he’s still learning and growing every day.
Cooper is a loving and affectionate dog who craves attention from the people he trusts. As he gains confidence, he will continue to blossom, so he needs a patient, understanding adopter who is committed to his journey. While Cooper is gentle and never reacts aggressively, he is easily startled and may drop to his belly or run when scared. He’s not a dog who will adjust quickly, so a calm, stable home environment is essential for him to feel safe.
Living with Cooper means providing a space where he can take things at his own pace, offering plenty of love and patience. Even simple changes in his surroundings—like moving furniture—can make him nervous, so a quiet, predictable routine will help him thrive.
Cooper is friendly and playful with other dogs and would thrive in a home with another medium or large dog to help him feel more secure. He’s housetrained, never having had an accident, and he’s still learning the ropes of leash walking. Cooper loves the outdoors and would do best in a home with a physically fenced yard where he can safely run and play.
Cooper is looking for a patient, experienced adopter who is home often and understands that his transformation will take time. If you have the time, space, and love to help him become the best version of himself, Cooper would be the perfect addition to your family!
Cooper is housetrained, kennel trained, neutered, current on vaccinations, heartworm tested, and microchipped.
