He loves being around his people and will be happiest with adopters who enjoy including their dog in everyday activities, whether that's going for walks, spending time outdoors, or simply relaxing together at home.<br/><br/>He would love a family that can provide daily exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. Cooper enjoys being active, but he's just as content curling up next to his favorite humans after a fun day of adventures.Cooper would do well with another friendly, playful dog, as he enjoys canine companionship, but he would also be happy as the only dog, soaking up all the love and attention for himself. He has done well with older children, and although he hasn't been around younger children, we believe his gentle and affectionate nature would make him a wonderful companion for respectful children under adult supervision. Because Cooper is smart and highly food-motivated, he'll thrive with a family that continues his training using positive reinforcement. He loves learning, earning treats, and making his people proud.<br/><br/>Above all, Cooper is looking for a family that will give him the love, security, and lifelong commitment he has always deserved. In return, he'll be a devoted, affectionate companion who will fill your home with unconditional love and happy memories.<br/><br/>What Is the Dog's Rescue Story?<br/><br/>Cooper's Rescue Story<br/><br/>Cooper and his brother, Teddy, were abandoned when the people who owned them moved away, leaving them to fend for themselves on the streets. Thankfully, a kind-hearted neighbor couldn't turn her back on them. Although she lived in a tiny apartment with only a small patio and didn't have the resources to care for two dogs long-term, she gave them a safe place to stay and reached out to our rescue for help. When we met Cooper, it was heartbreaking to see the condition he was in. His coat was severely matted, he was dirty, and he was extremely fearful of people, suggesting that he had experienced neglect and mistreatment. We immediately brought Cooper into our rescue, where he received veterinary care and a much-needed grooming. Once his matted coat was shaved, we realized just how neglected he had been. He was painfully underweight, little more than a walking skeleton. Over the following months, Cooper slowly regained his health, reached a healthy weight, and was neutered. More importantly, he learned that people could be loving and kind. With patience, gentle care, and lots of affection, his fear gradually disappeared, allowing his sweet, playful, and loving personality to blossom. Today, Cooper is a happy, healthy dog who has left his difficult past behind. Now he's ready for the final step in his journey: finding a forever family who will love him, cherish him, and never let him experience abandonment again.<br/><br/>Cooper is waiting in Mexico until a family is committed to taking him on a 10-day trial adoption.<br/><br/>If you are interested, please apply at www.northwestwagrescue.org.<br/><br/>His adoption fee is $650
