Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey, everyone!
My name is Skipper. I'm a tiny little puppy of four months, who weighs less than seven pounds, and I'm hoping to find just the right home to grow up in.
So let me tell you a little about myself. Well, like any puppy I just love to play. And play. And play. I could play all day long! And you know what my favorite toy in the whole world is? Do you give up? It's: my people! I especially like when they get down on my level so that I can jump into their laps, or give them kisses or bat at their hands, face or anything else I can reach. Sometimes, my Mom or Dad will shuffle their feet, and then I chase their toes to try to catch them. That's fun! I also play with my foster brothers and sisters. I give a little bark as if to say, "Come play with me" and then they do!
I'm a smart little girl, who knows my name and will come right away when you yell, "Skipper!" I'm just learning how to walk on a leash, so I might need a little more help with that from a patient friend. Same with housetraining. But I'm pretty good, because I know that I get a treat when I go out. And I sure do like treats! I also love to chew on my rawhide chews. My 'big girl' teeth are just starting to come in, so that really helps.
Of course, eventually I do get tired of playing, and then my favorite thing to do is curl up on somebody's lap while they watch TV. And at night I sleep in my own bed, in a little crate. I'm quiet and polite, and don't make a peep all night. But can I tell you a secret? Some day when I'm all grown up, I'd love to sleep in the big bed. (Hey, a guy can dream, can't he?)
Okay, one last thing I need to tell you. I'm a happy, healthy, adorable puppy, who just happens to be blind. But my Mom says to tell you that's no problem at all. I'm so smart that I figured out in just 2 days where everything was in my foster home. I found my bed, water and food. And most important of all, my Mom's office! She says that for such a little gal I'm very "resourceful". I'm not too sure what that means, but if you have a dictionary, you can just look it up….
Anyway, do you think you might want a cute, loving, inquisitive little sweetheart like me to brighten up your home? If so, please fill out an application and ask for "Skipper". I'll be waiting with a little smile on my face!
