Tipper is a 5-year-old Mini Aussie mix who embodies the spirit of a best friend and possesses the keen intelligence characteristic of herding breeds. Weighing in at a convenient 30-35 pounds, she's the ideal size for any adventure, whether it's a road trip, a hike, or simply snuggling up after a busy day. Tipper is a true professional, as evidenced by her routine of calmly stepping into her slip lead from her crate.
Like many of her herding breed kin, Tipper approaches new people with a thoughtful demeanor, preferring to set her own pace as she builds trust. However, once her loyalty is earned, you'll find yourself with an unwavering companion devoted to staying by your side. She thrives on learning, benefits greatly from structure, and is most content when she has a person to adore and a task to complete, even if that task is simply following you around the house. Tipper has shown she can do well with other dogs when introductions are managed with patience and respect. She isn't seeking a boisterous household; rather, she desires a home where she can feel secure, understood, and cherished. Given her sensitive nature, a home with someone experienced with herding breeds and older children who understand canine boundaries would be ideal. This sweet girl has an abundance of love to offer and is patiently waiting for someone to look beyond the initial moments and discover the incredible dog within. The most rewarding relationships are often those that require a little effort, and Tipper is certainly one of them. Could you be the person she's been waiting for?
