Cooper is a sweet Mastiff/Lab mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for people. He’s very social, enjoys car rides, and wants to be involved in whatever his humans are doing. His enthusiasm can sometimes get the best of him—he’s affectionate to a fault and still learning appropriate manners when he’s excited.
Cooper truly thrives when he has canine companions and would do best in a home with one or two playful, confident dogs to help burn energy and keep him engaged. He previously lived in a home where a moment of poor judgment led to concern, though no injury occurred. With structure, clear boundaries, and calm guidance, Cooper has shown he does best in a quieter household that understands large, strong dogs and can continue his training.
He’s looking for patient, dog-savvy adopters who can give him consistency, companionship, and the chance to be the good boy he wants to be. In the right environment, Cooper has all the makings of a loyal and loving companion. or

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
