Piper has been with us for more than a year now. She is five years old and is the most well trained dog we have right now. She is super obedient and listens well. She never puts a foot out of line and is just an all around good girl. We are just amazed that she is still with us! Over the past year we’ve learned a lot about Piper. First off, she adores Children. Like, will seek them out if she happens to hear them on a walk. She is very gentle and calm around them. Often rolling over for a tummy rub. It’s about the sweetest thing ever. We’ve also learned that her reactiveness to dogs is pretty hit and miss. She will go weeks, even months with no outbursts on a walk- she is improving a lot with consistent training, and walks every day. Piper also has a fondness for cats. She is easy to live with- and has good house manners. No need to crate this girl when you aren’t home. She is content to sleep on her pillow all day and wait for her family to come home. :) This past year we’ve had a few families interested but nothing that has ever panned out. Poor Piper, she’s beginning to think that no one will love her. Please consider adopting an adult dog- they have lots of love to give!
I am wondering if you have any young adult medium sized dogs, non-shedding or some that shed very little?
Thank you in advance for your reply,
Ruth
Hi
We were referred to your site by Donna McLaughlin the daughter-in-law of friends of ours on Gabriola in southwestern BC. We had a shepherd cross for over 16 years and we had her put down this past fall as she was very ill and her legs no longer carried her. She was a beautiful dog and intriguingly enough, her name was Piper. We would be very interested in knowing a bit about your Piper is she is still with you. We realize that we are pretty far away but we’d be happy to pay all transportation costs if she seems like a fit. We live directly beside a 707 acre wilderness park in a very rural area. We have two cats who are both used to dogs. We have a couple of questions if you have time. Does she shed a lot? Does she enjoy daily walks? Anything else you could tell us??
Many thanks for your time. If this seems like a possibility, please feel free to call us at 250-247-7459.
Cheers

I am curious if you still have Piper, Journey or the puppy, Eli, waiting for adoption. I am very used to the care of dogs and particularly Shepherds as we had one in the past, so do hope to adopt one of these dogs. Look forward to hearing from you.
