About Pippi

Meet Pippi! She’s a loving seven-year-old mix of German Shepherd, Labrador Retriever, and American Pitbull Terrier currently residing in Amherst, MA. With a beautiful black coat and a distinctive white chest spot, Pippi's affectionate personality makes her a fantastic companion. Weighing in at 90 pounds, she’s a big girl with a heart to match. Pippi is obedient and loyal, known for being protective and an incredible snuggler. She loves to romp around a fenced yard with her favorite giant orange ball, showcasing her impressive zoomies before finding the coziest spot for a nap. Pippi enjoys swimming, car rides, and chomping on peanut butter-filled Kongs. She can entertain herself, but she also loves playing fetch with her humans. This clever girl has undergone formal obedience training and knows commands such as come, sit, stay, heel, and down. She’s house-trained, crate-trained, spayed, and up to date on vaccinations. While she can relax happily in her crate when left alone, she thrives in a quiet, rural home where she’s the only pet. Pippi has a strong prey drive, so she isn’t suited for homes with cats or small animals. Pippi prefers to avoid dog parks due to a past incident, and she experiences some leash reactivity to other dogs. However, she is friendly with larger dogs at daycare. An experienced adopter who understands her needs and can offer a peaceful environment will help Pippi flourish. In return, you’ll enjoy her devoted companionship, impressive manners, and cozy cuddles! Could Pippi be the loyal friend you've been searching for? If you’re interested in adopting, reach out to Joyful Pets! Note that Pippi will remain with her family until the right home is found. Even long-distance adoptions are welcome!
