Cooper-D-Stupor

Cooper has all sorts of nicknames: Cooper-D-Stupor, Cooper-Stee-Dooper, Cooper-Booper, Super Duper Cooper Pooper, just plain Stupor, and Alaina calls him Booper. It's a good name for him. He's such a goofy dog.

One day, we had him in the house and I went to go look for him. He was hiding in the laundry room:
Yesterday, Brice went to clean a mess he made in the bathroom with the pooper scooper shovel. Cooper is apparently scared of the pooper scooper shovel and went to hide... In the CAT crate!How he fit his big self in there is beyond me! And he was able to turn himself around in there too!

We plan to fix up a Cooper-proof dog run today but I'll have to try to get a picture of Cooper's signature pose: Front paws on top of the fence, big head peering over to survey the world below. So you'll be driving down the street and you'll see:
(I just went and took these pictures just now before the dog run is fully enclosed and Cooper can't get his big dome up over the top of the fence anymore.)
He's like Yertle the Turtle or something--ruler of all that he sees.
