Skippy

Description

Skippy came into our care when an Inspector removed him and three other dogs from their house. He is a great young dog, he settled into kennels very quickly after a shy first day. He has been super friendly qwith everybody he has met, be it people, other dogs and even cats! Skippy knows one or two commands such as sit but would definately benefit from learning a few more, he pulls a little on the lead but is only small so easy to control. He could certainly live with other dogs in his new home if they are introduced successfully, but they would need to be tolerant of his playfulness. We feel he could live with children, so long as he is given the time and space to settle into his new home he should suit most home situations.
