Kip

My story

Meet Kip! Like his brother Cody, Kip was born in our rescue after his mom was saved from heartbreaking conditions where more than 15 dogs struggled to survive. Thanks to the safety and love of his foster home, Kip has grown up knowing kindness—and now he’s ready to find a family of his own. Kip is a gentle soul with a tender heart. While his brother jumps right into new adventures, Kip takes a little more time to warm up. Loud or unfamiliar noises can make him nervous, and when that happens, his crate is his safe haven where he feels secure. With patience, reassurance, and consistency, Kip is learning that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. This sweet boy absolutely loves the comfort of his people once he feels safe. He enjoys playing with dog friends, is good with kids, and has the same curious, playful spark as his brother—just at his own pace. Kip will thrive in a calm, loving home with a family who understands that shy dogs need time and encouragement to blossom. Kip’s heart is pure gold, and when he leans in for cuddles or trots over to join the fun, you can’t help but fall in love. He may start off reserved, but with patience and love, Kip will reward his forever family with unwavering loyalty and affection. Could Kip be the perfect match for your family?
