Cooper, Cooped Up Too Long

by Helen Hartel

Like a teenager 2-year-old Cooper is full of energy and has a zest for life. He is a German Shepherd mix, a big boy that was sadly relinquished to the shelter because he was a bit too much for his former owners.  

He needs someone who has the time, love and patience to teach more tricks because he wants to learn and at his age, the timing is still perfect.

if you are that someone special who will take him into your home with a nice warm place inside by your side, continue to teach him all the great things he needs to learn and understand how to handle a “big boy,” then ask to meet him.
