 Birthday: February 9th 2004
 Likes: cookies and being scratched under his chin

Pet-Peeves: being told to 'go lay down'

Best Tricks: sitting, shaking, and laying whenever a cookie comes around - also his new trick entitled "kneel before your god"?

Arrival Story: We were looking at the humane society one day and he was in his cage with his brother. He was sitting there calmly while the identical dog was barking like mad. He looked at the other dog and seemed to say, "Look, if you want someone to pick you up, you need to stop barking and chilld out". Copper's mellow attitude is one of the reasons he got brought home with us.

Long time since this has been updated. For those that care..
Coppy became very depressed after the baby was born back in 2005. He would hide in the back room and not be sociable at all. Since the older sibling was always bigger than Copper, we had no idea that he wouldn't be okay with small children around. I didn't know what to do for a long time. I worked with him, trying to make him more comfortable, but he continued to be anxious.
In the end, with both of us crying, but I think he knew, I took him back to where he came from. The Humane Society since then had become a no kill shelter with a long waiting list. I paid for them to rehome my baby. He was adopted in 4 days. That's because he was wonderful. I will remember him forever and miss him always.

Mommy was going to get rid of little sister, but I think she changed her mind. Well, how could she not? Nova is cute and awesome. I like to play with her. I'd be all alone without her!
We got a big bag of pigs ears from Daddy. Mm, they are so good. Maybe tied after my favorite food: strawberries. Mommy has been tossing us parts from her making salad and that makes me so happy.

Man, I don't know what it is. I think it might be the heat that's coming on, but whew I have been spending a lot of time in the back room lately. Mommy calls for me and I see her and I mean well to come see her, but I just wag my tail and keep laying down until Nova pounces on me. Yeah, I said 'pounces'. Darn, brat-a-mute is just like a cat. She even cleans me with her tongue, although I think I'm beyond her help at this point. We made the whole house really dirty with our digging outside. Oops! However, I find that middle of the night hunting is more my thing.
