Hi everyone! I was a 5 month old boy that was very special they told me. I was part Great Pyrenees and part Golden Retriever (I think). I’ve heard that being a mixture of those two kinds of dogs was a lucky break because the puppy has the best of both. And that was me! I was in one of those shelters. The people were nice to me but I wanted a real home and someone to stay with me and maybe kids, and other dogs and, for sure, a fence (if the kids were little) and my own bed and dish, and rides in a car and a chance to learn all kinds of things while I was growing. They called me “Tipster” -I guess that was because of the little white tip on the end of my tail? I was checked out at the vet and then went into foster care while my foster family was looking for the perfect home for me. We went to adoption day and I loved all the excitement and a 9 year old boy played with me the whole time! Well I’m now his doggie brother and have a new mom and dad and a golden/collie mix to hang out with and just about everything on my list…even a fenced in yard to run and play in. I’m one lucky pup – Tipster!
