Looking for a pup with a quirky personality and a truly big heart?! Look no further, say hello to Pippin, a 3-year-old, happy-go-lucky boy who truly loves people!
What makes Pippin such a quirky boy? Well, one of his most endearing traits is that he LOVES to suckle on his blanky like a pacifier. It’s his comfort item and a sure way to see his softer side shine (it’s also the cutest thing you’ve ever seen!).

Pippin is still learning that towels are not meant for tug-of-war (he’s a work in progress!), but he’s eager to please and quick to bounce back when redirected. He can get a little anxious in new environments, yet he does wonderfully with calm energy, gentle handling, and reassurance from his people.
When meeting another dog, Pippin showed his sweet nature, he was curious and friendly, even when the other pup got a bit snippy. He’s food-motivated, good-natured, and full of playful energy that’s just waiting to be guided into positive, fun outlets.
Pippin would thrive with a patient, loving person/family who appreciates his quirks, offers structure, and doesn’t mind sharing a couch with a pup and his beloved blanky. Could that be you? Come visit him today and see if this sweet, handsome boy is your perfect match! If you are interested in learning more about Pippin, please reach out to one of HSTT’s Adoption Specialists at 530-587-5948 or adoptions@hstt.org. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped.
