In May, Cooper the little shih tzu came into RSPCA care along with 26 other small breed dogs. He was unkempt and in desperate need of some tender, loving, care.
What a transformation for this little pooch - from when he first came into RSPCA care, to his new look after a much needed makeover.
It didn’t take long for Cooper and his friends to find new, loving homes, but it was a lot of work behind the scenes for the RSPCA to get all of these little dogs ready for adoption. Vet checks, desexing, grooming and everyday care; it all adds up!
This August, you can help ensure pets like Cooper can get the love and care they deserve, by supporting RSPCA Cupcake Day. Whether you’re a baker, or just keen to support the cause, it’s free to register to host your own RSPCA Cupcake Day in support of all creatures great and small.
Watch Cooper’s incredible transformation here:
Cooper is now living the high life in his furever home.
His new mum says, "Cooper has settled in well. My family all love him and he will have a wonderful life with us. Getting very spoiled! I am very glad I adopted him and he can have a better life than before."
