About Kip

Kip is the perfect combination of a walking buddy and a cuddle companion. At about a year old and around 30 pounds, she's spayed and current on vaccinations, adapting well to apartment life. Quiet in her crate, she patiently awaits her humans without a peep. While Kip may be slightly shy at first, she’s quick to warm up when she feels secure. She’s not just cute; she’s smart too! Kip has learned several commands, including sit, down, paw, fetch, and drop it on cue. She walks elegantly on a leash, making outings a pleasure. Kip is friendly with other dogs and currently cohabitates with a cat without any issues. Her herding instinct suggests that she’d do well with an owner who understands & appreciates that trait.
