My Story

Cooper came into our lives in the Spring of 2004.  Dad found him while riding his bike.  I had always wanted a dog, and I could not have been happier.  We called local shelters and they said that if in ten days he was not claimed we could keep him. After the shelter told us the good news, we discovered we knew the owner.  He called and asked if us kids were attached, then he told us to keep him.  Cooper and I were best friends instantly.  I hated being away from him.  4 years ago we were told Cooper had congestive heart failure.  We were all very sad, I didn't really understand.  Cooper had lots of fluid around his heart, which made it much larger than normal size. Mom says it best, "we always knew you had a big heart Cooper." Even the vet was surprised how long he made it.  He is quite a fighter.  Every single memory we have of Cooper is great.  He used to great me when I came home by jumping up on the highest part of the couch and perk his ears up and wag his tail.  Sometimes he would just poke his head above it to see me.  When it snowed he wouldn't go outside so he stood over the threshold and still managed to pee outside.  He didn't like playing with other dogs so he would fake a hurt paw; this was most evident on camping trips.  He came everywhere with us: Canada, Disney World, even to our brother's wedding.  He would stand on his hind legs and spin in circles when we had cheese.  He'd lay on the floor with us and scratch the carpet when he wanted to be pet.  he even held down our hands and faces to show us love.  I miss you Cooper and I love you.  We will always be best friends.  

I cannot wait to see you again.
