My story

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

Tipper. 2 yr old female border collie mix. Contact twylasfriends@yahoo.com

Tipper is lovely Border Collie mix that was
found in a local neighborhood. For several days,
kind folks fed her and tried to catch her but she ran away
in fear...only to return soon after. We believe she was
dumped by her owner, which explains why she kept returning
to the same place (hoping that her owner would return to
pick her up). One of the neighbors eventually called
animal control but another neighbor (a rescue lady) heard
about the dog and knew that if the dog wound up at the
county shelter, her chances of making it out alive were
slim. The rescue neighbor arrived before the dog catcher
and was able to lasso sweet Tipper who rolled over
submissively and wanted a belly rub after being caught
:)
Tipper is an absolute doll! She is
approximately 2 years old and tips the scale at 49 lbs.
She is extremely laid back and gentle but she will chase a
cat. If you are looking for a love bug that is crate
trained, good on a leash, rides great in the car, gets
along with other dogs, doesn't lick, doesn't jump,
doesn't dig, and doesn't eat poop then Tipper is
your girl. Tipper is vaccinated, spayed,
microchipped, ready for adoption and looking forward to
having a forever home to call her own. Don't hesitate
to contact us for an application to meet and potentially adopt
Tipper. She is a well-behaved bundle of joy who won't
be around long! Contact email: twylasfriends@yahoo.com
