Kippy is a 3 year old red tri boy looking for someone who would enjoy sharing fun with him. He is smart and ready to use his brain. Kippy has encountered a lot of new things in foster, and met each one with gusto. Linoleum and hardwood floors took 2 days to adjust to, stairs just a day. The settling or calming idea is a work in progress, but it is coming. Walking with the other dogs on an easy walk took just 2 days, not jumping will take more practice, but paired with that new command, SIT!, it is making more sense to him. Kippy gets excited when the clicker comes out and has begun to offer behaviors. He is the poster boy for learning is fun! Kippy is housebroken, though in the strange surroundings he did have an accident or two in the first few days. He had not ever been in a crate, but is learning. He does not chew on things so can be left out with the other dogs. He ignores the cats, they will walk right by him. Kippy has visited the dog park a couple of times and likes to play. He does not do well when it is crowded, he is overwhelmed, but with a few other dogs he will play and run. Kippy will retrieve a ball and bring it back to have you throw it again. He can problem solve, when the ball went under the arbor bench, he figured out to go around and retrieve it from the other side. Kippy is a medium sized Aussie, about 45 to 50 pounds. He is on the slim side, when stressed, Kippy doesnt eat, so he can stand to gain a pound or two. He is up to date on shots, heartworm negative, neutered and ready for his new home. Are you his new home? Kippy is fostered in Pittsburgh for ARPH. Check their website in the next few days for more information, aussierescue.org.
