Meet Kippy

Meet Kippy!!!! This beautiful boy was surrendered to the shelter by his family in Tennessee. He was scared of the big dogs in the house and needed older kids. Kippy would do best in a quiet home. Kippy is a loving boy, but is independent. He will hang out with his little dog friends and adults, but then will want to go and lay on the couch and take a nap. Kippy engages in dog play with his friends. He will play with toys here and there, but his overall favorite thing is to hang out on the couch to snuggle and get pets by his adult humans. Kippy would do best in a home with kids over 12 years old as he can be on the independent side. This way kids that age, would understand to just give him his space. Kippy can't wait to meet his forever best friend or couple. He will keep you company while you are working from home or just wanting to go for a leisure walk. Apply for this handsome boy today!!!!
