How did a dog like Cooley end up in the city shelter (BARC)? Cooley is a handsome red guy with a gentle soul. This boy has such good manners – he must have been someone’s companion. He knows how to sit and wait and is a dream on the leash. Cooley was rescued from his sad situation in the shelter on the 90th (last day) of his tenure. This boy was just too special to face his end. Cooley certainly suffered severe weight loss over his 3 month stay at BARC and gave him little chance of being adopted. It was said that he had an underlying health problem that caused his emaciated condition. But good news for Cooley – his physical exam and lab findings found him perfectly healthy – no parasites, no heartworms, no underlying health problems. With just one week of good meals, Cooley has transformed into a striking young man – very smooth sleek haircoat with svelte physique. He is absolutely soaking in the sun and loving to run and play in his backyard. This is only the beginning for Cooley – he has a lot to offer to someone who needs a loving companion. Come meet this special boy and you will not be disappointed. Contact Treat Em Right Rescue – Kathleen or Pat will help make it happen.
