Story
***** IMPORTANT! Read note at bottom regarding what a Hero Dog is and the adoption fee *****
Copper is a 1.5 yr old Cavalier King Charles / Cocker Spaniel weighing in at apx. 30 lbs. Copper is a sweet, affectionate, energetic, happy-go-lucky little pup who just wants to play, play, play with other dogs all day. For this reason, we feel most comfortable placing in a home where there will be one or more fursiblings to do just that. He is great with dogs of all sizes, small and extra large - he loves them all! And he’s even fine around cats, too! Copper is also crate trained and not a big barker. He is currently located near Trenton NJ (but transport is available to most anywhere in the northeast).
Aside from being a great addition to any home, what makes Copper even more special is the fact that a Hero Dog has a greater purpose — saving the lives of fellow pets in urgent need.
————- IMPORTANT NOTE! —————-
A “Hero Dog” is one who is specifically donated to our rescue in order to raise critically needed funds for life-saving surgeries of other pets in the rescue.
Copper’s $1500 adoption fee will be used for dogs with medical expenses like Sophia’s and Della’s amputation surgery, King’s eye removal surgery, Gunner’s and Coraline’s rectal prolapse repair, Snoot’s abdominal repair, Little Bean’s multiple fractured leg, several pregnant moms and their babies, treatment of countless dogs with heartworm (all of which currently total well over $20k)… The list goes on and on as we are currently facing the highest numbers of animals being euthanized in shelters ever recorded.
Many people do not think twice about ‘purchasing’ a purebred pet from a breeder for thousands of dollars, which simply puts a profit in somebody’s pocket. In this case, the adoption fee/donation is actually used to SAVE THE LIVES of other pets who would have been euthanized because a small 501c3 rescue like ours does not have the necessary funding or adequate donations to do so otherwise.
In essence, when you adopt this pet, you may be opening your heart and home to one dog, but you’re actually saving the lives of MANY that would nit otherwise be possible. By doing so, you are sponsoring the ability for other pets to have a chance at finding their fairytale ending as well.
Thank you for your understanding and for partnering with us in this mission. We are a small team of volunteers with apx. 200 dogs (and some cats, too) in our rescue at any given time, all of whom were saved from death row in high kill shelters or dumped/abandoned in their community. No one here receives a salary of any kind so 100% of every dollar donated goes directly to the animals in our care and your adoption donation is tax deductible.
