Hi my name is Kip, short for Kipper. I am somewhere around 4-5 years old, but who's counting? I really love curling up and taking naps, especially on a warm lap. I can be a little shy but I am friendly with new people and other dogs. Sometimes men can be a little scary to me, but with some warming up I am ok. I love taking walks and my foster mom applauds my leash manners. I don't go potty in the house even when it's just me here. I usually just sleep or sit by the door and wait for foster mom to get back. I have had a bit of a rough time and rough owners in the past but I am hopeful for a new and loving family. I really am a sweetheart. Even though my name is Kip, foster mom calls me precious a lot, it's kind of embarrassing, but it makes me feel special so I don't mind it much. I have a very calm demeanor and am very patient. I do love to explore, but then, nap time! I just want to be loved, and am pretty sure I'll steal your heart away with just one look, especially once I snuggle up with you in your arms. I would stay there all the time if I could!
