Humane Society Pet of the Week

Color: Brown

Breed: Dachshund Labrador mix

Gender: Male

Neutered: Yes

Why he is special: This adorable pup is Copper! He was found as a stray and released to us from a local shelter. He is your typical happy-go-lucky puppy just looking for his forever home! He is very playful, energetic, and sweet! He loves playing with toys, snuggling up with you for pets, and giving you lots of kisses! Potential adopters should be prepared for all the things that adopting a puppy includes like crate training, potty training, basic training, and lots of play and exercise time needed to help keep them happy and healthy! He has started basic training through the START Program with the Dayton Dog Training Club, but would need continued training in a new home. The great thing is that through this program, Copper’s new family will get two free training sessions with the Dayton Dog Training Club to set both you and Copper up for a successful transition.

Cost: $250
