Perpetual Christmas Morning
It’s hard to believe that this irrepressible guy spent most of his life on a chain before coming to us. Some dogs might be discouraged, but not Cooper — he’s the happiest, tail-waggin’est, cutest son-of-a-gun, despite what he’s been through. Good on leash, house-trained, loves leaning on and walking into you, and is mostly just so happy to finally get to be part of a family. And while Cooper should not share a home with chickens or other small animals due to his prey drive, he is great with humans and dogs. This cheerful dude is incredibly loyal and wants to be by your side as much as possible, but is working on gaining a healthy independence.
