Meet Kipper, the boisterous, fun-loving, and friendly boy looking for his new forever! While there are some things that Kipper needs some help working on, he's a quick learner and very willing to work for food!

As a big friendly boy, Kipper often doesn't know his own strength and is prone to getting jumpy when he's too excited! That's why his new family should be ready to help him learn proper doggy manners and better leash skills since he's also quite the puller. However, the adoption counsellors can give you lots of methods to aid you with this! Offering lots of enrichment and engaging activities will be important since Kipper's an energetic and active boy! Because he has shown signs of separation stress in previous homes, Kipper's new home should always have somebody there in the beginning as you work together on developing coping skills around being left alone. But all of the work that he may need at the start will be so worth it because he's an affectionate, sweet, and playful boy!

Who knows what you and Kipper will discover about one another? Maybe he'll learn all sorts of new tricks? Or maybe he prefers to be the big spoon when it comes to bed time? Come learn more about Kipper today and see if this goofball is the one for you!
