Cooper’s Story
From puppyhood, Cooper has been my daughter’s sidekick. With his love for cuddling, he has been her champion and protector, often curling up and “spooning” her on the bed as if he’s human. Despite being a beacon of love, Cooper grapples with anxiety and fear, making him skittish and wary of new experiences.
Understanding Cooper
Cooper’s fear can manifest in various ways, such as a fear of certain sounds or being apprehensive with unfamiliar people and situations. However, these behaviors stem from anxiety and not aggression. This gentle soul does need a patient and understanding owner who can provide structure and safety.
The Ideal Home For Cooper
- Safe and Structured: Cooper thrives in environments where he feels safe and understood. He would benefit immensely from a calm, structured setting.
- Space to Roam: With his love for the outdoors, a home with a spacious backyard or access to open spaces would be a dream come true for Cooper.
- Adult-only Home: Given his fearfulness around new situations, a home without children or other pets would be most suitable.
- Loving & Patient: Someone ready to shower Cooper with affection, understanding, and patience, helping him navigate his anxieties, is essential.
Reason for Rehoming
My daughter, who has lovingly raised Cooper since he was a pup, is transitioning to a nursing role that won’t allow her the necessary time and environment for Cooper’s unique needs.
Accessories Included
Toys, Bed, and Food will be provided to ease Cooper’s transition.
If you believe you can offer Cooper James the loving and understanding environment he needs, we would love to hear from you. Let’s help Cooper find the forever home where he can thrive and continue to share his boundless love. 🐾❤️
