Freckles, wiggles, and a happy hop in her step – that's Pippi Longstocking! This petite, bright-eyed girl is full of spunky sweetness and sees the world as her personal playground. Estimated to be around 2 years old and weighing 37 lbs, Pippi is a happy, medium-sized dog with energy to spare and a heart wide open.
On leash, Pippi walks at an easy pace and responds well to correction. When she's shown affection, she becomes almost giddy with enthusiasm, wiggling with joy and making you giggle every time.
Pippi is friendly and confident with other dogs. She enjoys playing with equally confident pups and does best with confident females and males overall. She has a bold play style with playful, confident dogs and responds well to structure and clear boundaries. She's not the best fit for a timid dog or one that lacks confidence to set boundaries. Pippi walks into her crate without fuss, which is a big win! She would likely thrive in a home with an active family. Her reaction to cats was mixed, so we'd love to see her in a home with a cat or two to get a better understanding of her interactions. Pippi is a bundle of big joy, big presence, and big heart, all in a medium package. She'll thrive with a little guidance and structure to channel her happy sparkle.
