Tip is a 6-month-old male Pointer mix weighing 10.1 lbs. He may not be the first dog to run up and greet you, but if you give him the time he needs, you'll discover a gentle heart that's just waiting to feel safe. Tip came to us unsocialized, so he's still learning that people, leashes, and everyday life aren't as scary as they seem. He's looking for a patient adopter who understands that trust is built through calm, slow movements, gentle encouragement, and consistency. A quiet, structured home will give Tip the best opportunity to thrive. He doesn't need someone to rush him—he needs someone willing to let him move at his own pace, celebrating every small milestone along the way. As his confidence grows, so will his personality. Because Tip is still learning how to navigate the world, a calm, respectful canine companion could be a wonderful influence, helping show him that life doesn't have to be so overwhelming. The best things in life are worth waiting for, and Tip is no exception. If you have the patience to help a shy dog discover what it means to be loved, you'll gain a loyal companion whose trust will be one of the greatest rewards you could ever earn.
