Pippy's Story

Hi, I&#39;m Pippy!<br/><br/>Yes, the rumours are true-I&#39;m a tiny, floofy lady of mystery (Mini Poodle, 8-10-ish years young), and I&#39;ve had<br/>quite<br/>the journey. I won&#39;t go into the drama (let&#39;s just say it involved a not-so-fabulous puppy mill and a daring escape), but thanks to a kind animal control officer and my rockstar foster fam, I&#39;m living the good life now-and ready to find my forever home!<br/><br/>So, here&#39;s the scoop:<br/><br/>I&#39;m sweet as pie<br/>, but I&#39;ve been through some stuff, okay? So I can be a little shy and skittish at first. I&#39;m still learning that people = snacks, snuggles, and Netflix time.<br/><br/>I like other dogs<br/>just fine! No drama here.<br/><br/>Cats? Cool. I don&#39;t mind &#39;em.<br/><br/>Alone time?<br/>I&#39;ll admit I might bark a little when you leave, but I promise I&#39;m not destructive. I&#39;m just expressing my... artistic side.<br/><br/>Walking on a leash?<br/>Haha, nope, not yet. I&#39;m more of a &#34;carry me like the royalty I am&#34; type. I&#39;ll get there with some practice, but for now, I&#39;m what you might call a &#34;flight risk.&#34; (If my harness slips? Poof-Pippy&#39;s gone.) A secure backyard would be a dream while I learn to trust the leash.<br/><br/>Potty skills?<br/>Pee pad? Got it! Outside potty? Still a work in progress, but I&#39;m trying my best.<br/><br/>My favorite thing? Hanging out in a cozy box in my foster mom&#39;s office. It&#39;s my tiny throne.<br/><br/>Oh-and I&#39;ve had all my vet stuff done, including dental surgery, so my breath is minty-fresh.<br/><br/>Ideal home?<br/>- Patient, gentle humans who get that I&#39;m still figuring things out<br/>- A yard to safely practice walking<br/>- Indoor life only, please (outside is cool, but I don&#39;t want to live there again)<br/>- Bonus points if you have a cozy box waiting for me<br/><br/>If you&#39;re into quiet company, gentle tail wags, and winning the trust of a formerly nervous little puffball (with excellent hair), I might just be your girl.<br/><br/>Let&#39;s make this a &#34;happily ever after,&#34; shall we?
