 Hi I’m Piper, a very cute and smart 4-5 months old gal. I know quite a few tricks for someone my age, according to my foster mom. When I am not practicing my smarts I LOVE to play with my foster brothers and chase toys. After a long day of playing I will be sure to cuddle up on your lap and take a nice snooze.
