Meet Rip from the Yellowstone litter!
Rip is one of the standout pups from the group, and he is super cute, incredibly sweet, and already stealing hearts. Like his siblings, he came from an unwanted litter living in poor conditions before being surrendered to a kill shelter in Georgia, but he’s now safe in Wisconsin and settling into his foster home.
At 9 weeks old and around 10 lbs, Rip is a best-guess mixed breed, but it’s hard to pin down exactly what he is — every pup in the litter looks a little different. What we do know is that they’re all slightly fluffy and already pretty large for their age, so we expect Rip to grow into a big, lovable dog.
Rip is sweet, social, playful, and eager to learn. He’s working on all his puppy basics — potty training, crate training, and leash manners — and making great progress. He loves people, enjoys other dogs, and has an easygoing, affectionate personality that makes him a joy to be around.
