This is the most recent information available; however, it may change as we learn more about the dog.

Copper has been with me for about a week now and he is a very busy, energetic boy! Copper is a Golden mix estimated be about 2.5 years old and was sadly returned due to his surrendering owner's allergies. He enjoys being outside and playing fetch or just running around the yard burning off some energy. He will need a home with someone who is able to exercise him regularly.
Copper is house trained, knows basic commands and will even sit patiently and wait for dinner. He enjoys pleasing his humans and especially loves to cuddle and be close to you.
He does great in a car and loves to stick his head out the window. We were recently at the vet and he weighed in at 50lbs and received a clean bill of health.
Copper does play a little rough sometimes, so I think a family with older kids would be ideal. He has settled in nicely with our resident dog and they have enjoyed playing with each other.

I am happy to announce that the adorable and playful Copper has been adopted!  After a brief stay in the Twin Cities, where Copper joyfully entertained my two dogs and me, he has decided to take his fun-loving personality and "Golden spirit" to Duluth and live with a wonderful family who will have a lot of time and love to give to him.
Thank you to everyone who took an interest in Copper, and to all those who helped him find his new forever family!!

Copper has been with me for about 2.5 weeks now and continues to thrive!  He remains a very busy boy and is happiest when he is running or playing. He certainly needs a lot of exercise.

Copper has met a few other dogs in our neighborhood - both a female and a male and he did wonderfully. Copper sometimes doesn't realize his own strength as he would run and knock them over.  Overall, he did great!

We continue to work on not jumping when he's excited.  He likes to jump on my husband and me when we get home for the day or when he is playing fetch outside. He is starting to improve on this.

We do crate him when we are gone to work for the day although I think he would do fine enclosed in a room or a level of the house.  He does roam free at night but generally stays at the end of our bed or sleeps in his dog bed!

Copper is a very sweet boy and after getting in his exercise he loves to cuddle!
