Hi there! My name is Tippy and I'm a spayed, 1-year-old, Pit Bull/Alaskan Husky mix that currently weighs about 45lbs. I'm a high energy girl that's ready for adventure! Doesn't matter if it's a hike or a long game of fetch, I love to go, go, go! I'm hoping for a new family that has experience guiding playful girls like me through training. If there are children in the home, I prefer kids that are 10+ since I'm still working on my manners and impulse control. I have a boisterous playstyle, and I love to wrestle so I'd like to meet any resident dogs before I officially join the family to make sure we'll be a good match. Once I'm able to get all of my energy out, I'm a very affectionate young lady. For more information, just ask Customer Service about me! Tippy ID# A956750
I recently went on a hike with a PHS volunteer! Here's how I did:
I took Tippy on the hike today. We had a great time and enjoyed the lovely weather. Tippy was well behaved in the car. Once we arrived at our destination, she was very excited to see other dogs and a new environment. At the start of the hike, she pulled quite a bit on the leash but eventually settled into a good stride. She had no issues with bikes, joggers, strollers, walkers and other dogs - we were able to pass with no problem. She really enjoyed getting her paws wet when we went to the beach. I think she would have enjoyed going for a swim if I had a longer leash. When we returned, she went straight to her bed for a bit of a nap. She is a very happy girl!
