Cooper's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.<br/>Online Adoption Application ›<br/><br/>**Please read the full bio for Cooper ** Meet Cooper. Isn't he handsome? The pictures are great but honestly don't do him justice of just how handsome he is. He is ~63 pounds of smushy gray fur with white markings. He has the cutest little underbite. Cooper is looking for his forever home - one who is dedicated to just Cooper as he needs to be the only pet in the home. He is a smart boy - he knows sit, leave it, lay down, recall, & stay! He is a strong boy & needs an experienced handler that will continue to work on his manners & leash skills. In his original home, Cooper lived with 10 & 12 year-old boys from the time he was 8 weeks old until he was 11 months old & he loved them very much. He is equal parts active AND chill - he likes to lie down on his bed with a bone or yummy peanut butter & treat-filled KONG as much as he enjoys doing the zoomies in the yard. Playing fetch is his favorite pastime - tennis balls are a must in the new home. When he is done, he’s ready to lounge & is happy to hang out with you or by himself. A DNA test was done which says he is a mixture of Labrador Retriever, American Staffordshire Terrier, hound, & Chinese Shar Pei. Cooper was adopted when he was a young puppy & was very loved. He was adopted into a home with a 2 year-old dog who was also a Pawfect Match dog. She loved him as a puppy, but started to indicate that she no longer wanted another dog in her home. They both had high energy play styles & a few play sessions escalated & were difficult to break up, with neither dog relenting. Cooper didn't take kindly to being told no by her & continued to assert himself. She then didn't take kindly to being ignored. It caused a stressful situation for both dogs. Because of this, it was decided Cooper needed to be the only pet in a furever home so was returned to the rescue.<br/>***Cooper is the 'pawfect' match for a household with no other pets - an adopter looking for a wonderful, smart, handsome dog with so much to offer is who will be his pawfect match. Cooper needs a home with a true FENCED yard so that he can burn off energy & play fetch without the ability to get into trouble. Cooper is not going to be a candidate for a dog park or doggie daycare. Cooper received a good deal of training prior to returning but he will need an adopter who will commit to ongoing training & whatever he needs. Could YOU be that 'pawfect' match?

PAW-fect Match Rescue's Adoption Policy
♥ Apply to Adopt Complete our adoption application. All adopters must be at least twenty one years old. ♥ Reference Checks After we receive your application, our volunteers will contact your veterinarian and your personal references. ♥ Home Check If your application moves forward, a volunteer will schedule a home check if needed for the dog of interest. This visit is not about judging your house. It helps us see whether your overall setup fit the needs of the dog you want to adopt. It also gives your current pets and any children a chance to meet the dog to be sure it is a true pawfect match. All human and canine family members must meet the new dog. ♥ Finalize the Adoption When everything is approved, you will sign the adoption contract and pay the adoption fee. This fee covers a remarkable amount of care. Your new dog will be: • up to date on age appropriate vaccinations • spayed or neutered • microchipped • on heartworm prevention • on flea and tick medication • groomed • started on house training All Pawfect Match dogs go home with a microchip, collar, leash, and a Pawfect Match tag.
