Cooper is the happiest dog in the world!!!

Cooper was rescued from Dead Dog Beach in Yabucoa, PR where dogs are abandoned and poisoned, shot at, intentionally run over, and worse. He was a sad and timid little guy and we decided he had probably been chained up most of his life because he tended to pick one spot and stay in it 24/7. In mid-September, Cooper was adopted to a family in Port St. Lucie and I've had the chance to visit with him twice to see his progress. He and Maddie, his new girlfriend, look very similar to each other though Miss Maddie is quite a bit, shall we say, more "robust" than Mr. Cooper. Cooper is a whole new dog now and he struts around with his tail sticking straight up into the sky! It's amazing to see the transformation he's gone through with a little time and a LOT of love and patience. Congratulations, Cooper! You deserve all the best!

I also adopted a Puerto Rican Mutt from save-a-sato. She is the best loving animal of all time.
