About Piper

Piper is a delightful little sweetheart who came to the rescue from Bakersfield, where she was found in a box at a bus stop along with her brother. Thankfully, they arrived in good condition and show no signs of trauma. Between one and three years old, Piper is a true cuddlebug who adores affection and being held. She enjoys playing with the other puppies at the shelter and gets along well with other dogs, though she can be a bit possessive when on someone's lap. A gentle bark and growl express her playful spirit, but it never escalates. Weighing in at just 4.8 pounds, this full-grown girl is tiny and charming, with soft and wispy hair that enhances her beauty. Piper is ready to find a loving home! Your new best friend is just one click away.
