Read about our adoption process on our website. Sweet Skippy was surrendered to us from another rescue who found him as a stray. He is a VERY playful guy who will do well with a very active family. He loves to run and play with the other dogs in his play group. His foster says that what strikes her about this dog is how affectionate and loving he is. He craves attention and is a big ol goof ball. He will climb into your lap if you are on the floor with him and just loves loves to be cuddled. He is a puppy in a big boy body. He is the perfect not too big, not too small size. He gets along great with dogs both large and small and will do well in a multi dog home or as an only dog. He has a beautiful shiny coat and stunning eyes. CANADIAN FOSTER: Skippy is a little shy when be first meets you, but once he knows you, you have a friend for life. Skippy likes to be close to his people so he'll hop up and nuzzle into you on a couch or bed. Skippy will do anything for praise. He is so incredibly sweet and gentle, and just needs structure and consistency to be an amazing companion. When he first arrived he was curious about what's on countertops (a little bit of a 'counter surfer'), but that has disappeared now that he is used to his home environment. Skippy lives in a home with a high energy dog. He loves playing tug of war, wrestling and running, but he equally enjoys his down time. He likes dogs, but truly is all about people, napping and cuddling. He is a bouncy boy, so he could knock over a smaller child, but he is just clumsy, and is a very gentle boy. All in all a super sweet deserving boy!
