Skippy's Story

Meet Skippy!<br/>Skippy is a sweet, curious 9-year-old gentleman who proves that age is truly just a number. While he's wonderfully calm and easygoing around the house, he still has plenty of pep in his step and enjoys getting out and about. Walks are one of his favorite activities, and he's always up for a game of fetch or a little toy time to keep things fun.<br/><br/>After he's had his exercise and mental stimulation, Skippy is perfectly content to settle in for some quality relaxation. You'll often find him lounging in a cozy dog bed or curled up on a soft blanket, soaking in the sunshine or just enjoying the calm of his surroundings. He has a naturally gentle, laid-back demeanor that makes him a lovely companion for quieter moments.<br/><br/>Skippy is friendly and social - he does well with other dogs and is comfortable around kids, but he would also thrive as the only dog in the home if that's the right fit. He's adaptable, affectionate, and happiest when he's near his people. One guaranteed way to win him over? Belly rubs. He absolutely lives for them and will gladly roll over to request more.<br/><br/>It's also important to know that Skippy will need a dental procedure to address his teeth, but the good news is that the rescue already has this scheduled and will cover the cost. He'll be feeling even better in no time, ready to enjoy his golden years comfortably.<br/><br/>Skippy would be a wonderful match for someone looking for a low-key but still playful companion - a dog who enjoys activity without needing constant stimulation, and who brings a calm, loving presence into the home. If you're looking for a sweet senior with a big heart and the perfect balance of energy and relaxation, Skippy may be your guy
