Medium (25 – 60 lbs) Learn MoreMr. Gruper (aka Cooper) is an adorable 6-month-old male Shepherd/Aussie mix. He absolutely loves to roll on his back and get belly rubs. Mr. Gruper will cuddle with you on the couch when you bring him up (pictured) and he falls asleep in his foster’s arms on the couch. It takes a little bit of time for him to trust you, but once he does, he will follow you around your house from a distance and check in on you.
Mr. Gruper is shy, so he does take a little bit of time to warm up. He is working on being house-trained, and hasn’t had any accidents inside the house. He is also being crate-trained, and doing very well sleeping the entire night in the crate. Mr. Gruper is great on leash, and naturally heels right next to you and looks up at you. He is also wonderful in the car, and sits patiently next to you (pictured).
This boy is still a puppy so please be home more often than not during this important socialization and bonding time. He’s currently about 30 pounds and our best guess is he will weigh in the 60+ pound range at full maturity. (No guarantees.) He will not an active home who will prioritize exercise and socialization. And, btw his brother, Gil, is also looking for a home (separately; see bio), so it would be wonderful if the adopters could meet for playdates, occasionally.
If you think you can provide Mr. Gruper a home with love, and help him grow his confidence, please apply for him to become a part of your family! (MR)
