Copper

Copper is finally ready for adoption! Please read every detail of her post before completing an adoption application. Please note it will be a FOSTER TO ADOPT due to her medical needs.
 
Copper came to us after being on the run for several months. She was severely emaciated and left to roam after producing several litters of puppies. It is estimated she is between 2 and 3 years old. She would thrive in a family home as she adores kids! She’s great with dogs, cats and people.
 
Copper is a blood hound and has very strong hound traits. She would benefit from long walks where she could follow her nose, but she doesn’t need vigorous exercise - she’s actually a couch potato! Due to her nose and her strong instinct to follow a scent, she should never be off leash and we strongly suggest a GPS tracker just in case. Her foster has done recall training incase she were to ever get off a leash by accident and she has done great. But again, she should never be off a leash due to her hound traits.
 
She enjoys spending her days at her people’s side, lounging on the couch. She is a sweet and affectionate girl who hugs on command. Her training is coming along amazingly from never having prior training. As perfect as she sounds, she does have a currently undiagnosed heart condition.
 
So far, it has no symptoms and was only caught when she was about to be spayed. She can still run about with energy. Blood tests have shown heart damage and the echocardiogram was inconclusive, however the amazing vets at Tanglefoot Fernie are still performing diagnostic tests. She is in otherwise great health and will be adopted out officially when the tests are complete.
 
At this moment, we are opening applications to find the absolute perfect home for Copper while we confirm her results.
 
When completing an application, please give as much details about you, your family and your lifestyle as possible. We will place Copper into the best fit for her needs.
