My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Flip Flop! This three-year-old boroughbred cutie is a certified mush who just completed his training program with our friends at Personal Paws. He's now the definition of a well-trained pup and is ready to find his forever family!

When Flip Flop arrived in our care, it quickly became clear that he had been through a tough start to life: he had an old dislocated hip injury that his body was forced to adjust to, and he was highly excitable, struggling to contain big feelings, especially around new people and other dogs. Not to fear! He's proven to be one resilient, determined pooch, and his training has helped him learn to manage his emotions and communicate appropriately with his world. We know he'll only continue to grow more polite and confident as he hones his skills!

Flip Flop thrives with proper structure and a clear routine, and is house-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, an all-star! He is the perfect mix of silly and studious: he equally loves to play and to learn, and is looking for a family who can match his freak. He's a loyal pup who loves his people fiercely, and is perfect for someone seeking a ride or die companion to go through life with. According to his former foster parents, "Flip loves being with his people and has so much love to give! He never fails to make us laugh - his personality is even bigger than his head, and living with him is like having your own real life cartoon. He is so fun to train and eager to please. He's easily one of the most special dogs we've known, and he has the absolute best heart."

Flip Flop would do best in a home outside of the city, away from the hustle and bustle, and is suited for an adult-only home, or one with older children who can respect boundaries, while he continues sharpening his good boy skills. His future family will not only get a very well-trained boy, but also a detailed training plan and follow-up sessions to keep him on the right track.
