Pippy is a big-hearted 48-pound mix of Black Lab and Shepherd, currently in a foster home in Houston, TX. She's a loyal companion who thrives on being close to her humans and enjoys their company in whatever they're doing. Pippy is playful and friendly, with a delightful personality that shows her sweet nature. At 4 years old, she is fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed—all set to find her forever home. Pippy is smart and food-motivated, eager to learn and listen when she has your attention. She enjoys fetch, especially with her favorite toys. Though she needs some patience in meeting new dogs due to her excitement, she can live harmoniously with other dogs when introduced slowly. Pippy is not suitable for homes with cats. On the plus side, she is kid-friendly and currently coexists with a teenager in her foster home, making her a great match for families with older children. When it’s time to settle down, Pippy is fantastic in her kennel and is fully house trained. She balances her playful side with a calm demeanor, making her an ideal companion for someone who will appreciate her goofiness and enthusiasm. Pippy is ready for her forever adventure—could that be with you? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
