About Tippy & Piper

Click apply to start the adoption process. Tippy and Piper are a loving pair of Pit Bull Terrier mixes who arrived at the shelter as part of a large litter after their previous owners left them behind. Having spent their entire lives together at the shelter, these sisters were once very shy and often passed over, but with time, they've blossomed and learned to trust more, showing both resilience and sweetness. A major perk for potential adopters: Tippy and Piper shed very little, making them a great choice for those who want a low-maintenance coat. Both dogs love going on walks and are good on a leash. They know basic commands, are eager to please, and long to feel loved and safe in a home of their own. Their dream is to find a family who will appreciate their gentle, devoted companionship. These sisters have always been together, so it's important that they are adopted as a pair to ensure their happiness. There is a special adoption fee for adopting both. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
