Meet Rip, our stunning dark brindle gentleman whose colouring is truly something special. At first glance, he appears a sleek black, but when you see him in the sunlight, his coat reveals beautiful deep brown tones laced with subtle brindle stripes, a rare and striking combination that makes him stand out from the crowd.
Beyond his good looks, Rip is an incredibly sweet and sensitive soul. He’s had his fair share of challenges in life, but through it all, his gentle nature has shone through. Once he feels safe and comfortable, he shows his affectionate side, quietly following you around the house, resting close by, and offering the softest little glances that tell you just how much he trusts you.
Rip thrives on companionship and truly enjoys the company of other dogs. He relaxes and gains confidence when he’s with a calm, friendly canine companion. Because of this, we’re highly recommending Rip go to a home with another dog, one who can help him continue to build confidence and show him that home life is full of love and fun.
He would suit a home where someone is around more often than not, as he loves being part of the household and knowing his people are nearby. Rip would be happiest in a quieter environment where he can take his time settling in and letting his personality unfold at his own pace.
With patience, understanding, and lots of love, Rip will reward his new family with endless affection and loyalty. He’s a truly special boy who deserves a calm, caring home to call his own, one where he can finally exhale and just be loved for the beautiful soul he is.
Rip’s suitability:
✅ Great for apartment or townhouse living
✅ Would love a small to large dog friend
✅ Suitable for dog savvy children
✅ Would love a quiet family home
✅ Great companion for seniors
✅ Would thrive with lots of companionship
✅ Calm and gentle
