About Skipper The Captain of

Skipper is ready to steal your heart with his undeniable charm! Born on September 1, 2026, this little shepherd mix is a delightful bundle of joy. He closely resembles his beautiful mama, Ginger, which has us all falling for him even harder. His story began unexpectedly when his mom gave birth to three puppies at the shelter, prompting us to bring them all to safety. Growing up in a caring foster home, Skipper has been surrounded by love and socialization with people, dogs, and even cats. He’s incredibly affectionate and gentle, traits inspired by his mama. While we estimate he’ll weigh around 50 to 60 pounds as an adult, he’s currently just over a month old and full of energy. Living in Menifee, California, Skipper is ready to find his forever family once he’s eight weeks old on October 27. Neutering is a strict requirement at 4 to 6 months, so interested adopters should be ready to commit to this responsibility. He's good with kids, cats, and dogs, making him the ideal addition to any family. This handsome little captain is excited for the adventure of a lifetime with you! What are you waiting for?
