About Rip
Introducing one of the most gorgeous boys ever – RIP!
Rip is a 1 year old Neapolitan Mastiff and has a heart as big as his body!
Rip is also officially the first place winner (ever) of the Paw Prints Canine Rescue drooling, slobbering, and snoring competition hands down! Any Neo lover will understand
While he has mastered the above competition don’t let that be the
things you remember most about him – Rip is a big baby who just loves to be around his people – he loves nothing more than going for a walk, hanging out in the backyard with his humans, watching TV or snuggling on the bed with his family
Rip is definitely a fan of the tv series - Yellowstone – he will happily join you on the couch and watch his namesake!
This big boy loves attention and affection almost as much as he loves to go for walks and play with his family. Rip’s size may make him look intimidating - but as is the traits of his breed, he is a loving boy who loves to be part of whatever is going on.
Neo's are also known to be intelligent and mild mannered who love to please their family and we can see all of these traits in Rip.
He enjoys to be out exploring the world and loves his walk. Rip is great to walk and happy to go at what pace you set.
Rip did come into care very nervous around some men but with his amazing carer and family they have worked hard to have him overcome this and now he is more then happy to have a cuddle with them. He is amazing with females and gentle.
Rip loves to play with other dogs and is currently in care with another male large size breed and has been exposed happily to small breeds where he has been gentle and loving with – unfortunately he cannot always control his feet so any small breed needs to be quick on their feet as Rip has been known to accidentally put his paw on one or even accidentally near sit on one.
Rip is easily made happy – a quick ‘hey boy’, a cuddle or especially some play time will see this giant become a small pup, whilst he thinks he is teeny tiny we do suggest that he will need to be supervised around young kids if they are not used to big breeds.
Rip enjoys the comfort of sleeping in the house at night and is happy with a bed that fits him or he has been known to try and squeeze into a smaller bed then you would think he could!
Rip is just snoozing waiting for his forever home

Adoption details
Paw Prints Canine Rescue is a non for profit dog rescue located in Southeast Queensland.
All our dogs leave our care with full vet work (up-to-date vaccinated, microchipped, desexed, heart worm and intestinal wormed and flea treated).
Please note - They will not leave for their new homes until they are 12 weeks of age and have been desexed, micro-chipped and vaccinated up to date.
Please note - we are not a pound or have kennels - all our dogs stay in foster carers homes and therefore dogs are not able to be simply viewed - only approved applicants will meet the dogs.
Please Note: We do not hold any animals so please only apply if you are ready to adopt now
Please note - We don't take calls on adoption enquiries - an application must be completed

Once an adoption enquiry is completed our admin team will assess the application and if successful we will arrange for a meet and greet to be completed. We may also request photos of your yard for consideration of your application. Please note that we will do no more than 3 meet and greets per dog.
Approved applicants will be contacted to arrange a time for a meet & greet via email. You must bring your current dog along to the meeting if you are meeting another dog/puppy, this is to ensure they get along before commencing adoption - proof of your dogs up-to-date vaccination is required before any meet and greet is arranged.
Our adoption fee must be cleared in our bank account before any animal is available for pick up. Please note we bank with ANZ - any other bank may take 48 hours to process the monies.
Paw Prints Canine Rescue has a 10 day trial period – this basically means that if for any reason the adoption does not work out and the dog needs to be returned to us, the adoption fee minus an admin fee (minimum is $100) will be returned to the adoptees via bank transfer within 7 working days.
Please note that if an interstate adoption needs to be returned or regional adoption all transport cost with be paid by the adopter.
Please also note while this can be a very exciting time for everyone, it can also be an overwhelming time for dogs and we ask that you do try and allow your new family member to settle in their new home and adjust
INTERSTATE ADOPTIONS **
Any transport costs are to be paid by the adopting family, however we can assist you in helping with transport to airports etc.
** Please note some of our dogs are not available for interstate adoption
AFTER THE TRIAL PERIOD
After the 10 day trial period is completed Paw Prints Canine will send out all relevant paperwork for your new furbaby via email including the transfer of microchip form.
