About Pippy
Pippy has the heart of a Chihuahua. He is feisty, playful, and loyal.
He loves playing with other (familiar) dogs and plays with his foster brother and sister all day every day. He is definitely feisty, so he does best with similar sized playmates who like to play. He also loves toys, including rope toys and bone chews.
He sleeps in his crate and doesn't want to come out if the morning is too cold. He also loves sleeping under the covers in his person's bed. If laying on the couch, he may come sit on your shoulder.
He is very feisty when unfamiliar humans are first introduced to him. He needs a few minutes on a lead or in his crate to adjust to their presence, and then he's so happy to come out and sit on their lap for pats.
Pippy loves to explore the yard and needs a day walk to help with his energy.
Pippy is a sweet boy who loves attention, loves wrestling with other dogs, and loves to chew on his toys.

Please note: we do not organise any meet and greet without a completed expression of interest form.
Our adoption process involves:

We ask that you pay the dogs adoption fee at the beginning of the adoption trial, however this will be refunded if for any reason the dog is not working out in your home within the four week period.
