About Kip

Kip is a sweet 3-year-old, 10-pound terrier mix who made his way to us from the Mexican border. When he first arrived, he was a scared stray, completely feral and unsure of human interaction. Fortunately, Kip has blossomed since then; he now sleeps in his foster’s bed and eagerly greets them when they come home. Kip is still shy around newcomers and will need a patient family willing to help him build confidence. A fenced yard is a must for his safety, and he would thrive in a quiet home, ideally with other small dogs. He enjoys gentle playtime, especially with the tiny puppies in his foster home. Kip has taken well to potty training and is altered and up to date on his vaccinations. His adoption fee is $550, which covers his microchip, health check, heartworm test, neutering, and vaccinations. For serious inquiries, please email littlebinkrescue@gmail.com.
