COOPER

Meet Cooper!

This adorable little mini Dachshund has come an incredibly long way and is now searching for a very special home that understands that sometimes the sweetest hearts take a little extra time to bloom. When Cooper came to us, he had experienced very little of the world. Basic experiences that many dogs take for granted simply were not part of his life. He had little exposure to handling, socialization, and everyday interactions. Since arriving in rescue, Cooper has been working hard learning that people can be safe, gentle, and kind. Underneath that uncertainty lives an incredibly sweet little soul. Once Cooper feels comfortable and begins to trust you, you start to see his true personality shine through. He becomes playful, happy, snuggly, and full of those silly little Dachshund moments that make people fall in love with the breed. He absolutely loves running around a fenced yard, zooming with excitement, and enjoying life with his favorite friends. Dachshunds are known for being incredibly loyal, intelligent, funny, and full of personality, but they are also famously independent and stubborn little thinkers. They often form deep bonds with their people and thrive when given consistency, structure, and understanding. Cooper and his best buddy Charlie share a very special bond. They play together constantly, help build confidence in one another, and genuinely seem happiest with each other nearby. We will consider separating them for the right home; however, we truly believe Cooper would do best either adopted with Charlie or placed into a home with another very friendly, confident, and understanding dog that can help provide comfort and guidance. For the right person, Cooper is going to be an incredibly rewarding companion. He simply needs someone willing to see beyond the nervous beginning and give him the patience and time he deserves. Hidden beneath those little legs and cute face is a sweet heart waiting for someone to show him that the world really can be a wonderful place.

Ideal Home

Cooper needs an adopter who understands that trust is not built overnight. He is looking for someone patient, calm, and willing to let him move at his own pace. Cooper is not a "plug and play" dog and would not be a good fit for a first-time dog owner. We truly believe Cooper would do best either adopted with Charlie or placed into a home with another very friendly, confident, and understanding dog that can help provide comfort and guidance.

Ongoing Health

All of our dogs are fully vetted, including: Spay or neuter, Age-appropriate vaccinations, Rabies vaccination, Microchipping, Heartworm and Lyme testing, Deworming, Flea and tick treatment, Heartworm prevention, and any other necessary medical care. Foster-to-adopt means the dog will live with you while completing any remaining veterinary care. Once completed, the adoption is finalized. If adopting a puppy under 6 months of age, we cover the cost of spay/neuter at the appropriate time.

Training & Support

Each adoption includes a 6-week group obedience class (a $125 value).
