About Pippa

Meet Pippa! Pippa is an adorable 8-week-old mixed breed puppy, likely with some Australian Shepherd in her lineage. This tiny girl weighs just 2 pounds, making her the smallest in her litter. Don’t let that fool you—she’s bursting with love! With a mom who is a beautiful 35-pound Shepherd mix, we estimate that the litter will grow to around 30 to 40 pounds, but tiny Pippa's adult size remains a charming mystery since she’s smaller than her siblings. Pippa was taken in with her four siblings after an accidental litter, and she’s eager for her forever family. As the cuddly one of the bunch, she adores snuggles and thrives on attention. She’s also playful and enjoys her time with other furry friends. Raised in a nurturing foster home, she’s really well socialized. Pippa gets along with dogs, cats, and kids, and she's learning about the world. Eager to please, she's starting on house training and crate training, so her new family will need to continue with some consistency and patience. Recently treated for flea-induced hair loss, her beautiful medium coat is making a lovely comeback. Pippa will be spayed, up-to-date on all age-appropriate vaccinations, and have her health certificate before adoption. This little sweetheart is ready to be a cherished companion. If you want a loving, playful puppy to grow up with, Pippa could be the one for you! They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
