Meet Skipper---Super Cute, Loving and Loyal and Loves Water!

Hi, I'm Skip. I got my start in life huddled under a pile of brush in a rural area with my 3 brothers after my original family dumped me. I am a SWEET, LOVING puppy and so thankful for a kind couple spotting us and scooping us up to safety.
If you haven't noticed in the pictures that I love mud and I love snorkeling for fallen leaves in my puppy pool.

While Skip's coat is shorter and wavy on his back the other 3 brothers had longer hair. Skip is the only one with due claws and has longer legs which might suggest there could be some Anatolian Shepherd or Great Pyrenees in his breed. Walking with a harness is going great, he's crate trained and house training is in the process. He RIDES QUIETLY and CALM in the car so a travel buddy he is indeed. He's a simple little guy with the adorable one ear up and one ear flopped over, well sometimes!! He loves to chase ball, is working on sit, loves to wrestle with his brother. Being young he would most likely adjust to living with a cat.

Whatever Skip's breed may be, it really does not matter, he's just a simple, sweet, cute, funny puppy waiting for his home and to be a part of a family who will take him to outings or whatever they enjoy. He is a sweet boy ready to trust and love so if you feel like you can provide Skip a loving forever home, please contact Freedom Street Rescue.

The Australian Cattle Dog, also known as the Blue Heeler, is a hardworking and intelligent breed originally developed in Australia for herding cattle. Renowned for their endurance and agility, these medium sized dogs have a striking blue or red speckled coat and alert, curious expression. With a strong herding instinct and boundless energy, they require mental stimulation and physical activity to thrive. Blue Heelers are loyal, protective, and make excellent companions for active individuals or families willing to provide the engagement and exercise they need.

The Border Collie is a highly intelligent and energetic dog breed known for their herding capabilities and exceptional obedience. Originating from the border regions of Scotland and England, these agile and versatile dogs are famous for their focus, stamina, and trainability. With their striking black and white coat and intense gaze, Border Collies excel in various canine sports and activities, making them ideal companions for active families and individuals seeking a loyal and dynamic pet.
