About Skipper

Skipper is a gentle 10-pound white Maltese who loves nothing more than finding a quiet lap to curl up on, making him the perfect companion for someone seeking calm companionship. He thrives when he has a peaceful home and someone nearby to dote on—if you’re looking for a dog to share your couch (or your bed), he’ll happily keep you company for hours. Skipper gets along with both cats and dogs, so he would do well in a multi-pet household. He has a heart murmur that requires affordable medication, and he’ll need a family who can help him stay healthy and comfortable. Born on February 18, Skipper is an Aquarius, so don’t be surprised if he sometimes shows a little playful independence. All Skipper wants is a soft place to rest and a human who loves him for who he is. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
