Ripley is the sweetest, most loyal boy who is ready to find his forever family. If you're looking for a goofy, medium energy companion that loves to play with toys, Ripley is the one for you! He loves walks, playing fetch, and working on learning new tricks. This pup is super treat motivated and agile, and is incredibly fun to train!
Ripley also loves playing with other dogs, does great with our grumpy resident dog, and enjoys doggy daycare, so he would do well in a home with or without other dogs.
Now that Ripley is settled in our home, we typically leave him to free roam in a puppy-proofed area and he does great. If you prefer crating, Ripley does well in his crate for up to about 6 hours. He is clever and knows how to break out of wire crates, so he will need something more heavy duty if you prefer crating. At night time, he sleeps happily in his crate in our room without a peep and only wakes up when we do. We think with time and sufficient puppy proofing, Ripley could likely be left to free roam when his people are sleeping, too.
With some patience and guidance, Ripley warms up to new people and enjoys spending time with his people. It takes him a bit of time, but with some treats, space, and gentle guidance, he loves all people and will make a great family member. If you're looking for a snuggly buddy to keep you company and make you laugh, Ripley is the pup for you!
