Cooper's Story

Look! Up in the sky... it's Super Cooper!!!<br/>Seriously - look up. Cooper can't exactly fly, but when joy hits, he jumps straight into it and ends up eye-level or higher.<br/>Cooper is super big, super energetic, super smart, and super good. Not "good boy" good. Force of good good. The kind that fills a room and tilts the whole day toward happiness.<br/>At three years old, Cooper is healthy, strong, and built like a hound who believes momentum is a life philosophy. He moves with purpose. He commits fully. Standing still has never seemed like the right answer.<br/>With people, Cooper's superpower is wholehearted affection. He greets you like you matter - because to him, you matter more than anything. He jumps, he spins, he tries to be close in ways that are enthusiastic, sincere, and occasionally require sturdy footwear. It's not wildness. It's generosity.<br/>With other dogs, Cooper assumes the best. Every dog is a potential ally. Every walk is a chance to make a new friend. He goes to the end of the leash not with anger, but optimism, broadcasting his belief that the world is better when we're all on the same team.<br/>A hero like this needs the right setting. Cooper needs a fenced yard and people who understand that energy is meant to be used. Hikes, games, movement, and a household that views "everyone's finally tired" as a major win.<br/>Once the day's adventures are complete, Cooper powers down into his secret identity - a 75-pound snuggle blanket who leans in close. All that strength softens into gratitude.<br/>Cooper's story has an origin chapter that matters. He came from a cruelty case, underfed and overlooked. Now that he's safe and cared for, he is making up for lost time the best way he knows how - by choosing joy, connection, and goodness every single day.<br/>If you're looking for a dog who will keep you moving, keep you laughing, and remind you what it looks like to live wholeheartedly, Cooper is ready.<br/>Animal Aid Society<br/>80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, VA<br/>Open to visitors 9am-noon, every day, including weekends and holidays<br/>Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!<br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Animal Aid Society's Adoption Policy
We require an in-person meeting prior to processing an adoption application. If you think one of our dogs could be a good fit, come for a visit! If all goes well and you decide to pursue adoption, you may submit your adoption application. Once your family, including any dogs, have also met with the dog you wish to adopt, your application will be submitted to the Adoption Committee for review. We estimate the pre-adoption process can take up to 14 days or longer. PLEASE NOTE: AAS is committed to finding the best fit for each of our dogs. For this reason, we will accept multiple applications for a dog. In the case of multiple applications, we will select the applicant that is the best fit based on the needs of the dog. Adoption fee for puppy/adult dogs is $300.00. Adoption fee for senior dogs is $150.00. We prefer that adopters be located within 40 miles of the shelter to facilitate post adoption follow up.
