My story

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

AWESOME DOG ALERT!
Howdy folks, my name is Kipper and I am a very friendly little Border Terrier mix about 3 years old, 18 lbs and I was basically living on the street, but in my owner's neighborhood. After repeatedly being almost hit by a car and having their vicious German Shepherd killing puppies in my backyard, some good samaritans asked if they would surrender me to a dog rescue, and they did! Woohoo, that was a lucky break indeed and now I’m living it up in my foster home without a worry in the world, other than the day I was neutered, LOL! I’m having fun playing with all my new doggy friends and met all the new people on picture day and I’m hearing I will get better owners who actually love and care about me! Win-Win!

My foster mom says I’m the best little dog because I’m always happy and wagging, I get along great with everyone, I play nicely with my doggy friends, I rarely bark, I don't guard my food or toys and I am housebroken. I love affection and didn't get much from my owners so if you don't mind 18 lbs in your lap, then I’m a lap dog, soaking up all the pets and snuggles and kisses I have always dreamed of! I also love going for walks on a leash and love going for rides in the car, and although I'm not thrilled being kept in a crate, I don't need to be. I have free-range status and I'm an angel. I just moved to Connecticut and have already charmed the socks off my new foster family. I've got forever dog material written all over me, so stop by to meet me and take me home!
