Chipper (On Trial 22/6/13)

Chipper is a 4 yo male desexed Mastiff x Kelpie. He is fantastic with children, even young ones and gets on well with other dogs. He is very obedient and has had a lot of training. He is great to take out for walks - heels on command, comes when called, sits, stays and shakes hands. He is a smart dog, always wanting to please.

Chipper is happy lazing around. He is currently kept in a very small backyard, so gets a walk a day... He does not chew, dig, or exhibit any boredom behaviours, preferring instead to sleep all day on his bed until someone gets home.

He can jump, so would need at least 5ft fences. He would be better suited to a home without cats as he loves to chase them. Chipper is primarily an outside dog at present, but does come inside for a few hours every day, as he dearly loves to be with you and be a part of the family. He is well behaved and calm inside and is toilet trained.

Chipper was surrendered to the pound as his owners were moving and sadly could not take him to their new home. He is a very loving and affectionate dog and makes a great companion. He is a truly amazing dog with a wonderful temperament who will quickly find his way into your heart.
