Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Age: 2 years Weight: 32.7 kg
A little bit about Copper: - kids unknown, 15+ recommended due to over-stimulation and nervousness - cats / small animals unknown - dogs unknown, potential for select other dog pending successful dog-to-dog
Bouncy, energetic, and smart Copper is a big boy looking for his new home! But not just any home; he`s looking for a calm, dog-savvy family that can go slow with him, help him learn better manners, and give him all the snuggles and playtime he deserves!
When you first meet Copper, he can be pretty nervous and has some barrier reactivity. However, as soon as you offer him a treat, he`ll recognize that you`re not actually all that scary. He even does the most adorable head tilts while you talk with him, and is very eager to show off his skills to earn more treats! But Copper doesn`t realize how big he is and if he gets too rambunctious, he can get jumpy and mouthy. That`s why he`d do best in a home with teens 15 years old and up that can recognize when Copper is getting too amped. Luckily he`s a very smart boy and eager to learn, especially for those ever-so-tasty treats! Like most pitties, Copper does have some allergies and will require a hypoallergenic diet and medication to keep skin issues at bay.
It`s unknown how Copper would do with other animals in the home, but the adoption counselors can help go over introductions when you come to meet him! If you have a soft spot for dogs with big noggins (and bigger hearts), then Copper just may be the dog for you!
