About Skipper
Meet Skipper, the loving and affectionate Labrador x Kelpie pup who's brimming with personality and zest for life! Skipper is a 7-month-old bundle of joy with an adventurous spirit that keeps him constantly on the go. His temperament is simply to die for, and his heart is as full of love as his energy levels are high. Perfectly suited for an active home, Skipper is eager to find a family who can offer him the training and affection he deserves.
Skipper's days are filled with boundless enthusiasm, whether he's zooming around with his chew toys, exploring new places on walks, or settling in for a snuggly cuddle. He's particularly fond of soft snuggle toys, which he loves to nibble on during naps, adding a touch of "aww" to every snooze. While he loves to play and run, Skipper also cherishes his quiet moments, happily curling up next to loved ones for a bit of downtime. As a social butterfly, Skipper gets along famously with children and other dogs, although his playful energy means he's best suited for homes where he’s guided patiently through learning maneuvers around little ones.
For Skipper, the perfect home would be one with a large, fenced yard that provides plenty of space for him to play and explore safely. His new family should be prepared to continue his training in a loving and consistent manner, focusing on basic commands and polite greetings. He responds well to positive reinforcement and will thrive with someone dedicated to his growth and socialization. Skipper is well-behaved indoors, toilet trained, and uses a dog door, but he will need gentle reinforcement to understand boundaries with furniture.
Skipper's looking for a forever family able to match his enthusiasm for life and has the time and patience to guide him as he matures into a well-mannered adult dog. If you're seeking an energetic, affectionate companion to add joy and adventure to your life, Skipper might be the perfect match for you! He's ready to fill your home with laughter, love, and a little bit of chaos in the most delightful way possible.

A home that will continue to work on his basic training and walk him daily as he loves getting out and about
