Hi there, my name is Flip! I am a handsome, 11 year old silver dapple male. I am a silly boy that loves a challenge where it relates to a trash can, so beware, I’ll ‘flip’ it over if you let me! ;-) I love to go for walks, foster mom says I get a little nutty when she is trying to ‘dress’ me to go out, but I don’t care, I know we’re going on an adventure and it is the highlight of my day! I do love to bark at passersby and other dogs, so foster mom is working with me to teach me ‘friend manners’, but I am being friendly, just a little loud. I love to play out in the yard and with my toys, but no squeakers for me, which is a challenge I will take and my tummy doesn’t always agree, so I only get toys sans squeakers to play with. I love to sit with you, but take note that I had back surgery so foster mom will not allow me on furniture unless someone is going to sit with me and put me back down. Same goes for bed time, foster mom carries me upstairs to bed and back down in the morning. I don’t sleep in the bed (though foster dad lets me when foster mom isn’t home), but rather sleep in my bed on the floor all cuddled up!)I do fine with a couple steps (that is what it takes to go outside, but too many could create an unwanted issue). And boy oh boy do I love belly rubs, you don’t have to ask me twice! I am fully house broken, don’t mind the crate from time to time, but please don’t leave me there long. Foster mom tends to put me in a crate or the trash up when she leaves, otherwise I help my foster siblings enjoy in trash play! I will do best in a home with children over the age of 8 that are respectful of dogs, especially since my surgery. I am very protective of my back, so quick movements or taps on my back don’t make me a very happy boy. I’m very lovable and would love to find my forever home with someone who loves to go for walks as much as I do. I was a bit chunky when foster mom came to get me, but she has worked very hard to feed me the right food in the right quantities and get me plenty of exercise so I stay trim and handsome, she says it is the best thing for my back too, and I agree, I walk so much better and feel so much younger with the extra weight off. So what do you say, do you want to be friends, walking partners, family? Just meet me, you’ll love me too!
