Precious Pippa the Playful Country Princess

Oh my heck, are we obsessed with this little girl! Everyone that meets Pippa instantly falls in love with her. She really does check off all of the boxes and she is absolutely adorable. When you meet Pippa, you are immediately hit with those big brown puppy dog eyes of hers, the kind of eyes that are like teddy bears that came to life. Pippa is believed to be a German Shepherd mix, approximately 2 years old, and currently weighs 40 lbs. She is a rescue dog, and with any rescue, it's always a mystery, and we cannot guarantee breed or age.

Pippa is as sweet as they come! This little lady loves to love, and once she does, it's game over! Next thing you know, you have a bestie to explore with, a snuggly princess to binge-watch your favorite shows with, and the sole reason why your camera roll will always be full. Though, Pippa can be a little shy at first with new people and in new environments. It does not take long for her to open up; within minutes, she's giving you all the kisses! She has been around kids as young as 4 years old, and her gentle nature showed with small kids as well. While she was tolerant of the occasional squeal and quick movements, we do believe that Pippa would be happiest in a home with slightly older kids.

Pippa is very dog-friendly and makes friends everywhere she goes. She has been in multiple playgroups with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and has the time of her life. She has a more gentle play style and loves to romp around with the other dogs, occasionally engaging in a gentle wrestling match, and then enjoying those calmer moments as well. One of her favorite games to play is chase; she loves running as fast as she can and enjoys when her doggy friends are running alongside her. She is great at sharing treats with other dogs and affection as well. We would love to see Pippa go to a home with another moderately playful pup that has a similar play style as her, one that will want to romp around in the backyard and also enjoys those calmer relaxing moments.

Pippa also met our house cat Biggie and met him appropriately and was very respectful around him. She did not chase Biggie, nor was she bothered by Biggie jumping or doing what cats do. Biggie also felt comfortable around her. If you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for her to have a sleepover with a cat upon request.

Pippa has a perfectly balanced energy, making her a great companion to take with you on leisurely walks throughout the neighborhood and then snuggle with you on the couch after. She walks well on a leash and hardly ever pulls. Pippa is treat-motivated, and she already knows how to sit. She is also crate trained and potty trained. She really is a gentle, perfect little lady.
