8/20/25 Foster Feedback: Pippi has settled in great. She enjoys soaking up the sun on the deck. Her giant frog is her favorite toy. Pippi likes to go for walks but she is a strong puller. She is pretty lazy otherwise, spending her days laying around and looking out the window. She loves going on car rides. Pippi is up to the challenge of playing with her puzzle toy and especially likes when she solves the puzzle and finds the hidden treats.. She is so smart and such a sweet dog. She just doesn't like other dogs and tends to be protective of her person. Pippi would make a great companion for someone with no other pets or young kids.

12/9/24 Building Volunteer Feedback: Princess Pippi is still looking for her kingdom to reign over, have you got some subjects in your realm for this regal lady? She is gentle and kind and large but slow and confident. Pippi loves scratches and snuggles and playing ball. This ol gal needs a calm home she can monitor and ensure the safety of its residents.

9/12/24 Building Volunteer Feedback: Pippi is such an easy dog at the shelter, and I imagine that translates to being an easy to care for dog in her home. Pippi is such a nice gentle dog, she walks like an angel, is potty trained, and generally doesn't cause a ruckus in her kennel. Being calm in the shelter environment isn't always the easiest and Pippi has done very well keeping her cool. It is heartbreaking to see her in the shelter environment for so long but at least she is doing well. Pippi does love a game of fetch and a good walk but she also has no issue taking princess naps throughout the day.
While Pippi isn't a good candidate to live with other dogs (or pets) since she will resource guard her favorite person from other animals, she can be friendly with dogs in a daycare environment. Her out of home dog socialization is good, which is good for encounters expected or otherwise. As we have needed shelter space Pippi goes to Fetchers where she gets socializing via doggy daycare and has a very fun time doing so. Pippi would be a great companion looking for her spot to lounge. She hopes it is with you

7/19/2024 Foster Feedback: Pippi is the sweetest angel girl there is! She seemed very comfortable with me right away . Pippi loves to play ball, looking out the window, going for walks and chewing on her chew toy! Pippi is 100%% potty trained and never had an accident while in my home. I did not put her in a kennel ever because she didn't seem interested in anything she wasn't supposed to have; she didn't try to get into the garage or onto the counter! She is the sweetest girl and loves to give kisses, getting head rubs, scratches right above her tail and sleeping next to you! She deserves the best home!

5/11/2024 Foster Feedback: Pippi has settled in quite well and is looking to be the Queen in someone's house. Her favorite things include running around the yard chasing her jolly ball, chewing on bones, sleeping next to her favorite people, playing tug of war, and carrying around her stuffed toys. She also loves going on walks around the neighborhood and the park.
Pippi knows the following commands: Sit, Stay, Lay down, Shake, High five, Leave it, Come, and Kennel. She is kennel trained, has fantastic leash manners, and is potty trained. Pippi will let you know when she needs to go outside by standing next to the door until you let her out.
At the moment, she wants to be the queen of the castle, so she will bark at dogs or strangers walking past the house. She will also bark at dogs walking too close to her. We have been working on this with her.
Pippi would make a lovely addition to any family looking for a laid back, but fun loving "bear" in their house!
