About Cooper

Cooper is a squishy boy who loves nothing more than pressing himself into your arms for big hugs. This handsome 4-year-old American Bulldog is incredibly smart! He received extensive professional training through Magic City K9, an organization that accepted Cooper into their unique program where he lived with his trainer at Everglades Correctional Facility in Miami, where inmates and dogs work together to build skills, confidence, and brighter futures.

Thanks to this experience, Cooper has learned over 40 commands and truly enjoys using his brain. He made friends with many of the dogs in his training class, but a home as the only dog would be ideal for Cooper as he adjusts to a loving home after being in a shelter for several years. Cooper is a total softie once he knows you, but he is a bit nervous around strangers, so he needs time to build trust. A low-traffic home is ideal. He has excellent house manners and is overall a chill, affectionate dog!

You can see more of his sweet personality on Instagram at @supercooper_apr.
He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. To meet Cooper, please fill out an adoption application at abandonedpetrescue.org
