Skipper is currently in a foster home. If you would like to meet him, please start by visiting www.sccrescue.org and completing an application. Meet Skipper — a true gentleman and the perfect first mate for your home. This steady sailor has an even-keeled temperament, always calm, cheerful, and ready to make every day smoother sailing. He greets new friends gently, enjoys attention without demanding it, and gets along well with other dogs aboard the ship. Skipper knows the ropes, too — he’s fully housebroken, well-mannered indoors, and happy to spend time out on deck enjoying the fresh air. Smart and eager to please, he’s the kind of companion who makes life feel like a peaceful cruise. Built like the ideal shipmate, Skipper is the perfect small-sized cuddle buddy who fits comfortably beside you on the couch after a long day at sea. His calm nature and affectionate personality make him easy to live with, whether you’re charting busy days or relaxing in calm waters at home. He’s constantly happy, loves being close to his people, and brings a warm, comforting presence wherever he drops anchor. After being owner-surrendered, this loyal Skipper is ready to give his whole heart to a new crew. He’s adaptable, grateful for kindness and routine, and thrives with gentle leadership and steady love. Whether you’re a first-time pet owner, a single sailor, a couple, or a family searching for a low-to-moderate energy companion, Skipper is ready to be your devoted first mate through thick seas and calm tides alike. Ready to welcome Skipper aboard? He can’t wait to sail into his next great adventure with you. We love our dogs. We want happy lives for all of them and are looking for the home that provides the best fit for each dog’s individual needs. Please understand that there may be multiple families interested in this dog. Also, please know that the breed mix listed is simply a guess. In most cases, we don’t know their background. We encourage you to base your decision on individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on our guess. Please understand, we only adopt our animals out near the Chicagoland area.
