My story

Just look at those eyes! You will fall in love with Cooper, a miniature Poodle mix. Cooper, is approximately 4 years old and weighs 12 pounds. Because Cooper was not socialized as a puppy he can be apprehensive when meeting new people and in new environments. He needs  time to warm up to new people, but once he gets to know you, he will be your best friend.  We are looking to place him in an adult only home with someone who has previous dog experience, and will have the patience to give him time to settle in and trust you . Cooper is a home body, and to him the outside world is a scary place. He would love a home where he can be someone's stay-at-home companion. Cooper likes living with another dog, but again needs time to warm up to any new dog. He is currently living in a foster home with another dog and both dogs are happy to just hang out together. Cooper will need reinforcement on his potty training. Cooper goes to doggie training class once a week and has made great progress in adjusting to being around other people and dogs. Cooper already knows all his basic commands. It would be best if his new family continued with the training classes, which are included with his adoption.  Therefore only homes in South Orange County will be considered. If you are interested in meeting Cooper please first fill out the adoption application at, www.greatpets.org. We cannot arrange an introduction without having an application on file first. Cooper's $300 adoption donation includes his vet exam, vaccinations, neuter surgery, flea control, training classes and microchip.March 15, 2025, 9:22 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Cooper, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
