Story
PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE BIO ON THIS DOG BEFORE REQUESTING AN APPLICATION. MANY OF OUR DOGS HAVE STRICT REQUIREMENTS FOR THEIR ADOPTION.
5 yr old purebred Silky terrier, about 8 pounds. Cooper is a delightful, happy dog with an exceptionally sweet temperament. An owner surrender due to a death in the family, he had an amazing, fulfilled life, and shows it. A true terrier, Cooper is energetic, loving, prey-driven, sometimes loud, a little sneaky (I didn't do it, Mom!) Beautiful, proudly high-stepping, brave, agreeable and an amazing, loving companion. Great on a leash, he loves to run, play and be active, but his very favorite activity is cuddling, lap time, snuggling and wagging his whole body. He loves all people and is good with dogs. Cats? Unknown, but he's a terrier. Barks loudly at door knocks, squirrels and unexpected noises, but he is mostly a calm, quiet boy. Cooper has some separation anxiety and is okay in a car but not thrilled with it. He will need regular grooming, exercise and lots of love. Be prepared for strangers who will stop you and admire him. This delightful dog will never disappoint. To request an adoption application, email smidgetrescue@hotmail.com
Adoption contract and fee applies. All adoptable dogs can be met at adoption events hosted every weekend. For a list of scheduled events go to: https://www.facebook.com/SmidgetRescue/events . Smidget Rescue is not a shelter, and dogs cannot be seen at the Rescue location. All dogs are fostered throughout the Puget Sound area and are brought to the events where they can be met by prospective adopters. Additional pictures of adoptable dogs can be seen at: https://www.facebook.com/SmidgetRescue/photos_stream?tab=photos_albums. All adoptable dogs are spayed or neutered at 6 months of age or older. Puppies are adopted with a refundable spay/neuter deposit (in addition to the adoption fee) and adopters are required to get their puppy to our vet for their pre-scheduled spay-neuter appointments. APPLICATIONS CAN BE OBTAINED BY EMAIL ONLY. Adoption process includes application, meet & greet, home visit and reference check. Email Jamie at smidgetrescue@hotmail.com or click on the CONTACT link on this page. PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS BEFORE SENDING. 8632781We get a fair number of incorrect emails and Jamie is not able to contact potential adopters. Notice: We do not ship dogs out of state. You must live within a three-hour radius of Seattle, WA, (such as Portland, Vancouver B.C., etc.), so we can arrange for a home visit. If your home seems like a great fit for the dog you would like to adopt, you must then drive to meet the dog at one of our weekend events or at the fosters home.
