Tippy's Story
WHAT IS YOUR NAME?<br/>Hiya! I am Tippy!<br/><br/>ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL? <br/>I am a lovely lady.<br/><br/>HOW OLD ARE YOU? <br/>I was born in 2018.<br/><br/>WHAT BREED ARE YOU? <br/>I am a pit bull mix. <br/><br/>HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH? <br/>I weigh 51 pounds.<br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE? <br/>I have a beautiful black coat with reddish brown hues in the sun, a white patch on the chest, stunning amber eyes, ears for days, and a larger than life smile. I am on the smaller, leaner side for a pit bull. <br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?<br/> In addition to my kibble, I love savory treats like chicken and fish, or maybe a quesadilla. (Haha!)<br/><br/>WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?<br/>I have the personality and energy of a much younger dog. You would never guess I am eight years old based on how active and fit I am. I am always in a good mood, ready to play or cuddle, sweet and gentle with the humans around me. <br/><br/>DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY: <br/>My perfect day includes walks to smell all the roses, playing fetch with myself and my favorite ball, napping next to my humans while getting belly rubs.<br/><br/>WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY? <br/>I LOVE BALLS! My favorite one is just the right amount of squeaky and bouncy so that I can play a game I call "smack it, flip it, catch it, repeat.”<br/><br/>DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS? <br/>I am great at sit, wait, fetch, and taking treats very gently. <br/><br/>WHAT SCARES YOU?<br/> Losing my ball. <br/><br/>HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?<br/> Yes! I have been around some family friends that are eight to 11 years old, and I meet other children on my daily walks that love to say hi and give me pets. I love humans! <br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE CATS? <br/>When I see them on my walks, I generally leave them alone, but I will take a pass on having cats for roommates, thanks. <br/><br/>HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?<br/> Well, I am selective about other dogs. There are other dogs in the house with me, but we do not hang out together. I leave them alone when I pass their crates, or when they pass mine. When I am on walks and see dogs, I get a bit anxious if they are too close to me. I would prefer to be the only pet in the home, please. <br/><br/>IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE? <br/>Going on walks or sniff spots, and getting cuddles from my very own humans. <br/><br/>HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?<br/> I am fit as a fiddle! Nobody believes I am already eight years old! <br/><br/>WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH IN YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION? <br/>I live with three adults, and there are other young adults that come and go often. I love my foster mom because she feeds me and takes me for walks, but I will toss her aside like yesterday's kibble when her son comes home. He is my favorite human and gives me belly rubs. What can I say, I love men. <br/><br/>WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE? <br/>I hang out in the primary bedroom. I have a crate in there that is open for me to come and go out of<br/><br/>WHERE DO YOU SLEEP? <br/>I am happy sleeping in my crate or in a bed with one of the humans. <br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?<br/> I love walks and love to sniff allll the things when I we go out. I am very good at sitting and waiting at corners when cars need to go by, or when humans need to pass by. <br/><br/>DO YOU HAVE ANY “NOT SO GREAT” HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?<br/> My foster mom says I am perfection. I do not chew things I shouldn't. I am not destructive at all, so she trusts me to hang out in her room during the day while she is working downstairs. <br/><br/>ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED? <br/>Yes! I am fully house trained and crate trained.<br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE WATER? <br/>I do just fine with baths! I enjoy being pampered and getting a little extra love. But what I really love is SWIMMING!! OMG the pool is my most favorite thing ever! I am very good about wearing a life jacket of course. <br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?<br/>I love that they love me, take me for walks and let me sniff all the things, provide me with an endless supply of balls, and they keep me safe. I just love being with humans. <br/><br/>IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOUR FUTURE ADOPTER? <br/>I may need to be an only dog, but I promise I'm worth it. We will have a super fun life together! Will you please take me home with you?<br/><br/>**The adoption fee for Tippy is $100.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Tippy, please jump on our website and fill out an adoption application - www.norcalbullybreedrescue.org<br/><br/>At this time, we are asking for adopters to be in the Sacramento and IMMEDIATE surrounding areas (which means Sacramento County, parts of El Dorado County and parts of Placer County).<br/><br/>For more information on what that means and why that is, please click on the following link:<br/>https://www.facebook.com/333019703483910/posts/3264412130344638/?extid=0&d=n
