About Piper

Piper’s got the kind of ears that make you do a double-take—absolutely one-of-a-kind, just like the dog herself. She’s smart and quick to pick up on training, already solid on her sit, lay down, and stay commands. Piper packs some muscle and doesn’t mind showing off her strength, so regular walks and time to burn energy are a must. She likes playing with other dogs and does well in group settings but likes being the boss, so she may need to be the leader in the household. Piper’s sharp mind means she’s up for learning more tricks if you want to take her training further. If you’re ready for a loving, active companion, Piper’s waiting for you in Hanna City, IL.
