About Cooper

Say Hello to Cooper! Estimated DOB 2.23.25

Meet Cooper — a striking, lovable pup with a heart full of loyalty and a face that will melt yours! With his strong build and gentle eyes, Cooper is the kind of dog who makes everyone feel like they’re his favorite person. Cooper is that perfect blend of playful and calm. He enjoys time outdoors, whether it’s exploring the yard or going on walks, and he’s just as happy relaxing by your side when the day winds down. He’s smart, attentive, and eager to connect with his people — the type of dog who thrives in a home where he’s treated like one of the family. He’s looking for a family who will give him the love and structure every great dog deserves. In return, Cooper will offer endless loyalty, goofy smiles, and a tail that never stops wagging. If you're ready to welcome a loyal best friend who will always have your back, Cooper is waiting patiently to meet you.

Ideal Home

Homes considering puppies must be prepared for:

  • Flexible Schedules for Potty Training. Puppies can only hold urine for one hour per month of age.
  • Crate Training for the next 10 months to keep them safe from chewing on everything in your home.
  • Supervision with Children and Obedience training.
  • Socialization; both with new people, children and other dogs outside of the home. Homes that want a well-behaved dog must be prepared to put the time, effort, and costs associated with training a puppy. Well-behaved dogs are not born, they are trained! Please do not apply for a puppy if you cannot or do not have the time for a puppy.
