DescriptionCooper's ideal home
Cooper is a gorgeous golden Labrador, with all the energy and enthusiasm that you’d expect from a 1 year old. He’s super smart, loves his training, and is hopeful to find a family who have just as much desire to teach him new skills, as he does to learn! Cooper is an energetic lad who would benefit from channelling his breeds special ability e.g. through gundog classes. While Cooper is lots of fun to be around, he’s also sensitive at times, particularly with strangers, and can become overwhelmed when in unfamiliar situations. When he’s having these big feelings, Cooper can resort to grabbing or humping. We feel that he would be best suited to an adult-only home, with patient adopters who can provide him with a calm and predictable routine. He will also need to be the only pet at home and would benefit from ongoing training to support with his doggy-social skills. He’s a strong chap when he wants to get to something exciting (i.e. rabbits, or squirrels!) so will need adopters who are confident in managing him physically.
Could you be Cooper's perfect match?
Walking in the quiet countryside is one of Cooper’s most-loved pastimes, and he is especially happy if there’s a blackberry bush for him to pick from. He travels well in the car, which is great if needing to drive him to the peaceful walks that he prefers. Whilst in our care, Cooper’s carers have been working with him on ‘gundog’ style training, which encourages him to utilise his natural breed traits. He absolutely adores this, so would love for his new family to continue this for him once he’s home. Cooper LOVES his food and enjoys eating in food-based enrichment toys like Kongs, licky-mats, and destruction boxes. He’s also a big fan of his toys but can get overstimulated if the game becomes too exciting. Calmer, controlled games are best for him! If you would like more information about adopting Cooper, who is currently living in a foster home, or would like our team’s help to find your pawfect match, you are very welcome visit us in person at our rehoming centre, in Shoreham.
