Cooper
​(2010 - 2021)

​Our 2011 alumnus Cooper has passed to the Rainbow Bridge and we’re heartbroken for his family.  Cooper came to rescue at about a year old and matured into a wonderful buddy for his dad Jim.  They went on pre-dawn walks every morning and Cooper learned to fetch (and became ball crazy).  We can’t forget to mention his obsession with lizards and the inevitable destruction of things in his way to reach them.  Cooper was also very smart. If he wanted his parents’ attention, he would push his ball into the water so they would come fish it out.  He was a true gentleman when meeting new humans, an expert at leash walking, loved belly rubs and a very loving boy.  To say that Cooper was well loved is quite an understatement – he was family, which included unconditional love.  When Cooper’s spleen cancer became too aggressive and he was clearly suffering, that unconditional love kicked in and despite the heartbreak, his parents gave him sweet peace. 
 
From his family: You should know he was a very important part of our lives, lived only to please us, and I am thankful that you let us adopt him.  
 
Run pain-free after those lizards at the Rainbow Bridge sweet Cooper.  And our hearts go out to the Hayworth family…
