Arlington Pet of the Week: Cooper

This week’s Pet of the Week is Cooper, a Cavalier King Charles spaniel and Bichon Frise mix.

Here’s what his owner, Bryant, had to say about him:

Cooper is a vivacious 1/12 year old CavaChon (Cavalier/Bichon mix).

He has a a lot of energy, loves other dogs, and will bark to be chased or to chase. He loves people just as much. He is a hit where ever he goes, and smiles light up when we pass strangers on the street, with Cooper oblivious to his charm.  We were lucky to receive him, when an older couple could not take care of him. He was a very active pup, and they could not keep up.

Someone recommended us possible new parents. The rest is history. We previously lost our Cavalier/Cocker baby Charlie 2 years prior (when he was 10), and it all worked out when we adopted Cooper. The saying “Dogs are man’s best friend” is so accurate, and they are. Cooper may meet you one day out at the parks or sidewalks. Feel free to say hello. You would make his day!
