Tipper Tater is an approximately 1-year-old, 14 lb bundle of unique charm! With one warm brown eye and one striking ocean-blue eye, and ears that seem to capture every sound, he's sure to be the main character in your life. He’s believed to be a Chihuahua/Dachshund mix, but with rescue, breed and age are always a mystery! Tipper is a gentle and quiet soul who enjoys a peaceful home. He's dog-friendly and has shown no interest in chasing cats, making him a potential friend to feline companions. He’s crate-trained and potty-trained, and while he's still figuring out toys, he approaches them with adorable curiosity. Tipper is a "slow burn" who takes his time to trust, and when he does, it's incredibly meaningful. He's looking for patient people who will let him warm up at his own pace and celebrate his progress.
