My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We have had Cooper since 8 weeks old. He is now 2 years old. He gets along with my parents dogs and loved our other dog. He plays well with our cats as they play back, he goes after my parents cats when we go over there (non aggressively but playfully) but they want nothing to do with him so he will bark at them. He has grown up with our son, but has recently become aggressive when my son tries to love up on him. We had put our other dog down in April and since then he has been becoming more aggressive. He is now food agressive and has been growling and showing teeth to our son (2 years old as well). I am unsure if it is because of our other dog being gone. He is not aggressive towards me but will growl at my husband as well. He is a loveable and snuggly dog otherwise. Loves to sleep in bed with you. We love him but my husband and I do not want to take the chance of him biting our son. Would be great in a family with older kids and lots of attention.
