About Tipper

Tipper is an adorable, rambunctious puppy who has not let anything slow him down. He runs, plays, explores, and loves life with the enthusiasm that only a happy puppy can. His resilience is nothing short of inspiring, and his joyful spirit reminds us every day that challenges don't define us. Rescued from the brutal China dog meat trade, Tipper is looking for a family who will see beyond his three legs and recognize the incredible, loving companion he is. Could you be the one to accept Tipper's challenge and give this amazing little tripod the forever home he deserves?
