Age: 5

Gender: Male

Breed: Alaskan Malamute

Parents: Unknown

Mate: Amore

Children: None right now..

Personality: Before the Accident: Copper was a sweet guy who liked to put his heart and soul into whatever he did. He enjoyed his work and loved to go out with the team. Although he was a little more on the reserved side, he enjoyed hanging out with the other dogs and would often be seen in the boiler room. He loved chatting with the other dogs in Nome about what was going on in the town. When it came to his team mates he was loyal and trusted them completely. He was more than happy to follow Boomer's lead and directions, preferring to leave those decisions up to his friend. He would often spend quite a bit of time chatting with Boomer and would often tease the red and white husky about starting a relationship with Hope. Copper never had much interest in a relationship of his own, but he loved seeing other couples get together. He was always the type of dog that could be depended on and reliable.

After the Accident: Copper couldn't believe it when Hope ran off and wouldn't come back to town with them. He knew how much she was hurting, but couldn't help but feel resentment and betrayed by her. On his way back to the town he vowed to never trust her again and became very withdrawn and introverted. He lost his joy for running and ignored contact with most other dogs. He became very bitter and was not as easygoing as he used to be, often snapping at other dogs if they even mentioned sledding. This all lasted for a long time until he ended up getting stuck out in the wild and happened to be rescued by Hope's new pack.

The two of them had some serious heart to heart talks, with Hope helping Copper understand that he needed to move on with his life. Copper finally let go of his friend's death, forgiving Hope and reverting back to his former personality. He became much more like his old self, but used the wisdom of his age to his benefit, becoming much more levelheaded and willing to make tough decisions and stand up for himself more. He joined a team that ran supplies to and from Nome. There he met his fellow team mate Raffworthy, and the two became good friends. It was through Raff that Copper met a much younger female named Amore. She was about Two years old and was Raff's daughter. Copper felt a connection with the cheerful female and started mentoring her on how to beat her narcolepsy and become a sled dog. The two of them became very close and eventually started a relationship. At which point Copper left his current team and began using his strength to compete in weight pulling competitions. Copper regained his fun loving side, and became much more confident. He felt content with his life.

Likes: His owner, the snow, being with those he trusts, competing in weight pulling competitions.

Hates: The heat, being lied too, being betrayed.

Fears: Losing another team, getting old, the nightmares he used to suffer from.

Other: He really dislikes it when people are talking about how he and Amore have a difference in age. He doesn't believe that age matters in a relationship, and doesn't like that others look down on him for it. He also often thinks about his former team mates and wonders how their lives have turned out.
