Biography
Poor Skip! He was given up because his owners separated and were both moving to places that wouldn't allow dogs. Everyone who meets Skip falls in love with him. He is a sweet and gentle dog but, as is obvious from his picture, he is very overweight. We will get him enrolled in Doggie Boot Camp and help him lose weight before he is adopted. He will need a patient adopter willing to continue his new diet and exercise plan. We know there is a slim handsome boy just waiting to be released from that "fat suit". So far, Skip has lost four lbs! ***Applicants must be willing to drive to Ellicott City, Maryland (10 miles south of Baltimore) to meet and adopt Skip. Adoption fee is waived for adopters 60 and over***
