This is Cooper, our five year old Lhasa Apso. We adopted him from an Army family that was moving overseas about two years ago and I can't begin to describe how much he means to us. Last April he was attacked by our neighbors Chow mix and was nearly killed. Thanks to the one of the amazing emergency vet clinics here in town, they were able to put him back together for us and for the most part he is 100% now. One side effect from the attack is that he is epileptic now due to the thrashing he took from the attack. We've been averaging about two seizures a month but at the moment we are at the 3 1/2 week mark with his latest prescription update. My wife and I have learned a lot about epilepsy and pet nutrition because of this.
He is the most loyal and protective dog we have ever had and is absolutely fearless. Though he is only 15 lbs, I have no doubt he would risk his own life to protect one of us as he has already proven this in the past. He exemplifies "man's best friend". Huah Coop'troop.
