About

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.
