BIO:
Howdy, y'all! Skippy here, ready to be your fun-loving, cuddle-seeking sidekick for life! I am a friendly chap who enjoys running around the yard as fast as I can, then plopping next to you on the couch for some quality cuddles when I am all tired out. My ideal forever home would have a fenced yard to enjoy, but I am also a great walking companion and am well behaved on a leash. I adore other doggies and love to play with them; it would be a huge bonus to have another best furry friend to call my sibling. Did I mention I am well-behaved, too? I am about 90% potty trained and crate trained already. Fetching Tails requires adopters of young dogs like me to sign us up for training classes, and I am eager to see how much more I can learn. I hope you fill out an adoption application soon so we can embark on our lifetime of play and snuggles!
If you'd like to adopt this dog, please get started by filling out a complete application (incomplete submissions cannot be sent.) Please note that while we take time to learn as much as we can about each dog in our care as possible, our bios are written from current observations. Though we do our best to share as much information as possible about each dog we care for, we are unable to make any guarantees on the future health or temperament of your adopted dog. Most dogs in our care come with unknown pre-rescue history, and information pertaining to breed and age are often educated guesses.
