Could it be that it wasn't the right time for Cassie ro bring Cooper home in November but NOW it IS the right time???Let's think this through...from a "Universe" sort of way:
* Cassie has ALWAYS wanted a Standard Poodle!
* A while month has passed so it would be "better timing" to bring Cooper home!
* Clearly Cooper refuses to go with anybody else and is waiting for Cassie to bring him to his forever home with her!
*Let's see. What other signs is the Universe giving us....hmmm......got it! Cassie's name starts with a "C" and Cooper''s name starts with a "C"!
Think how cute it will be seeing tripawd Domino and tripawd Cooper playing together..ADORABLE!!!
That Universe sure is a tricky little energy things! It always knows exactly what it's doing and why! Just sayi '...
Signed,
The Universe
Thanks so much "The Universe"! You're like my biggest advocate! Fingers crossed!

OMD! I wish I was ready to look for a new member for our pack right now, I would scoop Cooper up in a heartbeat! I've been wanting a standard poodle for years now. Unfortunately we aren't quite ready for a new pupper right now 🙁I really hope Cooper finds a wonderful forever home soon!
Cassie and Domino
Hi Cassie and Domino! Just wanted to say Happy Holidays and let you know I'm still available! Just sayin' 
Love, Cooper
Hi Everyone. Just wanted to let you know I'm still available! I've been in my foster home for almost 4 months now, but I know my forever family is out there - they just haven't found me yet! I'm doing really well, and I've settled down a lot. I'm doing really well on the stairs now too! The 2 hot spots I had have been cleared up for months (my foster mom switched me to a grain free kibble, so that may be what did it, who knows?). Anyhoo, just wanted to say hi, and if you know of anyone who would like a very handsome Standard Poodle boy who is really pretty spectacular, please let them know about me! Thanks everyone!!! Love, Cooper.
Darn! Thought for sure this handsome fella' would be in his forever home by now!
Thank you for taking such good care of him and for updating us!
Do you have anymore pictures you could post here? That may help pull at some heart strings!
Gonna try and get in touch with CASSIE and DOMINO! Maybe NOW is the right time!
Tha k you again for all you're doi g for Cooper!

We've had a few applicants, but the right family just hasn't found him yet (Cooper really needs a home with no small children because of his mouthiness, and a fenced yard because of his prey drive). I actually tried to post a picture, but I can't figure out how to do it. I'll try again 🙂 
ha ha, if anyone cares to turn their laptop upside down (or stand on your head should you prefer that option), that's Cooper, the handsome one in the picture wearing his Webmaster Harness 
WOW I can't believe the right family hasn't come along yet Cooper! Well they ARE out there, I know it. Thank you for updating. Can you email us a photo and we'll put it here for you?
It looks like your foster peep was trying to post an image from an email? That won't work, it has to be hosted somewhere like a Tripawds blog, Photobucket, Facebooger, etc.. Here are instructions on how to upload but if that doesn't makes sense we're happy to help. Email us here.

Thank you so much! I couldn't figure out the blog things, so I just emailed you 3 pictures to choose from. Cooper REALLY appreciates your help!
Hey Cooper here's a photo you can share around:

GREAT NEWS! Cooper has been adopted! After 6+ months in rescue, he went home today with his forever family! He will have 3 Standard Poodle siblings. Thank you all for all the support. I gave his new family the links to your website and Facebook page so they will have the benefit of your knowledge and resources. Congratulations Cooper! 
This makes me so happy - I've been wondering about him. It sounds like the wait was worth it and he found the perfect family!

Yes, they are absolutely perfect. They have now adopted 4 Standard Poodles from this rescue, so we know he will have a great life. Thanks so much for your comment!
Thanks for letting us know- what a wonderful day!
It was a long wait but sounds like Cooper found a great pack.

Yes, Absolutely worth the wait! His new daddy messaged me today to tell me he just got back from buying lumber to build Cooper a ramp so he didn't have to go down the outside stairs into their yard (their deck is 4' off the ground). He wants to do everything he can to maintain the health of Cooper's remaining front limb. Perfect family for sure!!!
