Looking for a gentle, goofy sidekick who’ll stick by your side through snacks, naps, and Netflix? Meet Sipp, with the heart of a teddy bear and feet just a little too big for his own good. He brings just the right mix of chill vibes and playful energy.
Sipp is the kind of dog who wants to hang out, whether that means napping at your feet, watching a movie with you, or keeping you company while you make lunch. His love languages are snuggles, head pats, ear scratches, and snacks—not a fan of forehead kisses but he’ll lay his snout right in your lap and fall asleep. He's great with other dogs, gentle with kids, and warms up quickly to new people. We’re unsure about cats.
He’s a dream in the home: fully potty trained, settles into bed at night without a peep, doesn’t counter-surf or bark. He’ll follow you around like a Velcro shadow and occasionally steal a Kleenex if you forget to close the bathroom door. He rides well in the car, though he may need a bit of encouragement getting out.
Sipp walks nicely on leash, loves to sniff and explore, and is learning to use communication buttons to ask for needs. His recall still needs work, so he hasn’t been off-leash outside of a backyard yet. He enjoys tug toys, chasing balls (we’re working on the "bring it back" part), and isn’t destructive with soft toys.
Sipp would thrive in a home where he can be a bro—just vibing with his people. Whether you're solo or a family with kids, he’ll match your energy (and your naptime). He’d prefer not to be left alone all day, though does well on his own. He’ll do best with someone willing to continue working on training and giving him structure. A carpeted home would be a bonus—he’s a bit clumsy with his big paws.
