Tippy's Story
Adoption Area: East Tennessee<br/><br/>Tippy needs:<br/><br/>Active adult home only. No children.<br/>A fenced yard <br/>Patient owner home part of the day to continue working on my house training and social skills, but I am doing well<br/>A small playful dog friend<br/>No cats<br/><br/>Tippy is a sweet, cheerful little girl whos ready to find her forever family! Shes about 1.5 yrs year old, weighs 11 pounds, and is a mostly tan Chihuahua mix with adorable white tips on her feet—hence the name Tippy.<br/><br/>Tippy is a perfect work in progress! That means shes not perfect yet but she will be with a patient and understanding owner. Tippy will blossom with an owner who has experience with shy dogs and one willing to work with her on gaining confidence. Her foster mom is happy to help with tips and tricks to bring out the best in her! Before settling in, Tippy will hide in a safe place and may have accidents if approached suddenly. Even after warming up to her foster mom she can still revert to those behaviors if she is nervous. Once Tippy feels comfortable in her new home she is a goofy, happy girl who loves to play with toys, chew bones and chase squirrels. <br/><br/>She will do best with a confident dog friend showing her the ropes and one that will play with her. Tippys favorite friends are her size but she also gets along with larger, gentle dogs. She does view cats as something to bark at and chase so feline companions arent advised! <br/><br/>Tippy has gotten very good at walking on a leash and enjoys treks on the greenway or in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, she does get car sick so no long trips for her. Because Tippy likes to take time contemplating an ideal potty location she will need a fenced yard so she has the freedom to find the best spot.<br/><br/>Tippy has been spayed and is up-to-date on all her vaccinations and preventatives. Now shes ready for her forever home—could that be with you? If you think Tippy can be your new bestie, please fill out an application. Tippys adoption fee is $175.
