Cooper aka Gordon came to his forever home in October as a foster, and joins 2 more Vizslas – Boomer and Gunnar – and 12-year old Peter, to make one big delighted family!   Cooper was owner surrendered due to the fact that he did not want to hunt.  What a blessing to our family, because he is an absolute joy to be with!  Cooper is a lover and cuddler and would choose a warm bed or couch over finding birds any day!   When he came to us, we had to coax him out of the car and he was skin and bones.  He was so scared and had his tail tucked between his legs until he saw Boomer and Gunnar and then the floodgates opened!  We now call our 3 Red-Heads the Three Musketeers and they are wonderful friends; it is so much fun to watch them play together.  Cooper’s socialization and self-confidence issues are an on-going project and he continues to improve daily.  He is a massive chewer and, after the carpet, bedroom dresser, stair railings, area carpet, living room chair, sponges, and few Christmas decorations endured various forms of destruction, he now spends some of his day in his kennel which makes for a happier Mom and puppy!!   Cooper is so smart and has already learned a few tricks – we call it “Monkey See, Monkey Do” because he follows Gunnar around and picks up his mannerisms, even the less-than-desirable ones!  We couldn’t have asked for a sweeter puppy dog to love! - Marianne
