This is Cooper. Follow the pictures and you will see his journey with us.Cooper is with us today thanks to many volunteers and donors who helped him along the way. One of our volunteers got him to safety, but a few days later he became very ill due to too many parasites. He spent a few days in the hospital in Portsmouth Ohio, where several local families donated to help cover almost half of his bill.He then came to our foster in Westerville and is doing fantastic. Cooper is gentle, playful, sweet as can be and overall a wonderful boy. He loves kids and all humans. His vetting is now complete and he is seeking a forever home. Cooper is about a year old and 25 pounds. He will make a great addition to any family.Apply to meet him at ricopetrecovery.org. Adoption fee is $250.

Cumin is a standard poodle that we've had since he was a small puppy! He's nothing but a bundle of energy and full of love. He is very affectionate and clings to his family and those he's grows close to. Cumin has always been a beautiful dog even now! He loves his chuck-it ball, playing in fetch in yards and dog parks and he love long walks and solving his puzzles. Although he's high-energy, Cumin is great at matching pace with his owner's energy levels and temperament. He's good with children and other kids but he is a jumper and sometimes he can get a little 'too' excitable when interacting with other dogs or children. As we do not have any kids of our own, he'd need to be trained. Cumin is very gentle, smart and inquisitive, however. So he's a fast learner! However, he does have an unresolved skin issue. I have taken him to the vet here in Seattle and have gotten some temporary fixes like antibiotics and soaking solution for his paws that worked. But I can't afford anything more.
