About Skipper

Meet Skipper, an energetic and playful dog currently with Corridor Rescue in Spring, TX. At nearly five years old, this adorable black and white pup is a tripod due to a leg amputation from a prior trauma, but that hasn't slowed her down one bit. Skipper loves to play fetch and can keep you entertained for hours. Once she's tired, she reveals her affectionate side, snuggling up close after an exciting play session. Skipper is currently learning basic commands and excels with a head halter for walks, although she needs more leash training. She would do best as the only pet in her home, as she does not get along with other dogs or cats. While she may take some time to warm up to new people due to past experiences, treats and a ball are sure to win her over. Skipper is looking for a patient adopter who can help her feel safe and loved in a forever home. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
