Cooper is a fun-loving, people-oriented guy who truly shines when he’s with his person. He loves to hang out, be part of the action, and soak up companionship. His previous owner shared that he’s great with kids, housebroken, crate trained, and will politely whine to let you know when he needs to go outside.
This playful pup has lots of energy and enthusiasm for life. He enjoys other dogs—especially dogs his own size or larger—and does well with them. He also knows some basics like “sit” and “lay down,” and rides well in the car (with a little whining at first).
Cooper was recently adopted and returned because he was simply too much for the smaller dogs in the home. He plays big and bold, and while he gets along well with larger dogs, his excitement can overwhelm tiny companions. Because of this, Cooper would do best in a home with larger dogs. He may also chase cats, so a cat-free home is recommended.
If you’re looking for a confident, playful, loyal companion who loves people, does great with kids, and is already rocking the house manners, Cooper could be your perfect match. Give him the right setup, and he’s ready to be an amazing best friend.

More about this shelter
Marion County Animal Services is the largest animal shelter in our county. Operating as a no-kill shelter, our kennels are almost always full. We provide adoption, fostering opportunities, work with rescues, accept volunteers and provide the training for veterinary assisting students. In addition, we run the Neuter Commuter and provide all animal control services in Marion County.
Due to the sheer volume of animals in our care, we need lots of help from our community in our effort to adopt out more and save more!
We don't only accept the ideal animals into our shelter. We can offer you quite the array of animal breeds and personalites! Keep an open mind when visiting our shelter- you may find that your perfect match is not at all what you set out to find.
We're here to help you as well as our homeless and lovable animals.
