Why I need a new home

Relocating

My story

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


Tippy is a handsome, healthy, and friendly deaf Border Collie mix. To know Tippy, is to love him.

He will thrive as a part of an attentive home environment with a safe and suitable area for Tippy to exercise. Preferably a secure fenced in yard where he can play fetch, his passion. And never off leash in public of course as he is deaf.

I adopted Tippy from a rescue that is no longer functioning. So I am looking to place him on my own.

The reason that I’m rehoming Tippy is that I have recently retired and I’m moving out of state soon. As a result , I’m unable to take Tippy with me.

He’s house trained, kennel trained and Tippy really loves car rides! He’s incredibly observant! He has not had leash training but generally does well on a leash in my experience with him.

Tippy knows hand signals and will watch you and your hands for direction. Tippy is up to date on vaccines and preventatives. He just had his teeth cleaned also.

Thank you very much…
