Cooper
Service Dog, Security Officer and Agent for high morale

It is with great sadness and deep regret that we share the news that Cooper has crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. We miss him tremendously, and we know that many of our patients miss him just as much. His presence touched so many lives, and he will always hold a special place in our hearts.
