My story

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

Pippin is an almost 3 year old sweetheart Aussie. We adopted him from another family who needed to re-home him, due to their landlord's requirements. Pippin is so fun, energetic, and fluffy, but needs a lot of attention. He has passed his dog training class from a local program, is up to date on all his shots, does well at doggie daycare/boarding, loves people, other dogs, and older children. He is, however, quite anxious. He takes anxiety medication, and did well on it. However, since our infant was born earlier this year, he has not been able to adapt to life with young children, and is unable to relax when the baby is awake. He does wonderfully with kids ages 6 and up, but he needs to be "the baby" of the family in his new home. Pippin is a "goodbaby" (that's one of his nicknames) and he definitely needs a home where he can get lots of love and attention so that he can relax.
