Tippy is whip-smart, curious, and full of personality. She happens to have mild brain damage that makes her a certified "wobble dog," but her condition doesn't slow her down. Watching her navigate the world with confidence and determination is truly inspiring.
Tippy thrives with affordable medication (under $20/month) and a few easy accommodations: nonslip rugs, raised food bowls, baby gates for stairs, and a ground-level living space. She cannot swim, so pools and deep water should be avoided.
Tippy needs someone who appreciates her intelligence and independent spirit, can provide simple safety modifications, and understands that "special needs" doesn't mean "less capable." She's active, curious, and ready to keep up with an owner who values her unique personality.
Different doesn't mean less. Tippy is loyal, loving, and fully capable of being an incredible companion. The accommodations are simple, but the rewards are endless. She'll teach you about resilience, joy, and living life without limits. Tippy doesn't let anything hold her back, and she'll inspire you to do the same.

More about this rescue
Highland Lakes Canine Rescue was founded in 1999 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization by a group of folks who wanted to rescue homeless dogs from the Central Texas region and care for their health, rehabilitation and then to ultimately find these dogs a forever home uniting them with a newly adopted family. Initially HLCR started out as a foster only organization but over the 17 years has grown into it's own location with a kennel facility, outdoor pens, walking trails and staff and resident caretaker. An active and passionate group of staff and volunteers works tirelessly supporting HLCR and its mission.
