Copper (aka Mongo)'s Story

Hi! I’m Copper, AKA Mongo! I’m an 8-month-old ridgeback mix. I’m sure I’ll be a big when I'm all grown up, as all ridgebacks are. <br/>I can also guarantee I’m a sweet boy and love everyone I meet! <br/>Outside of my foster home, I’m shy. I get along well with other dogs. I haven’t met cats, though I do have a high pray drive so I’m not sure I’m a fit with a home with cats. <br/>I am 51 pounds, house- and crate-trained. <br/>I walk well on a leash, and I want to be your perfect “big little man”!<br/>If you are my family or person, please apply today!<br/><br/>DOB ~5/13/25 <br/><br/>YouTube Playlist of Copper's videos and shorts: <br/>https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTKk-3J0rnhgJwYQ3ibBTPH22HfPHp2vl <br/><br/>***PLEASE NOTE*** This pup has not yet been altered and requires an extra $100 spay/neuter deposit. JCAPL will pay for the procedure at a partner clinic and once completed, the deposit will be refunded to the adopter. However, a non-local adopter is required to pay for the spay/neuter at their own veterinarian by a specific date. After proof of the procedure is provided, $50 of the adoption fee will be refunded with the deposit. *** <br/><br/>Are you interested in adopting this dog or another JCAPL pet you have seen? You'll need to start by completing an adoption application: https://jcapl.org/blog/jcapl-adoption-process/. There is no obligation to adopt by completing an application, however, we do recommend submitting an application as soon as you find an animal you are interested in.
