While I can’t read the minds of our furry friends, I’m quite certain that every pup dreams of having a fun, loving family. This not only means having a warm roof over their heads and delicious food in their bowls but also the vital ingredient that makes life meaningful – love. Therefore, it breaks my heart when I encounter stories of pups struggling to find their forever homes, no matter how wonderful they are or how hard they try.
Never Give Up

The timeless saying goes that patience is a virtue, yet not everyone can embody this quality during challenging times, which is completely understandable. That’s why I deeply admire those who maintain their patience amid adversity, especially when that individual is a loving pup like Tipperary, affectionately known as Tippy.
Tippy is a sweet dog who has been patiently waiting for her forever family her entire life. Upon her arrival at the Rancho Coastal Humane Society in California, she was ready to embark on a joyful journey with a new family. Unfortunately, four years later, she remains in the same place. Despite this setback, neither Tippy nor her dedicated California rescuers have given up on her.
In Search Of A Home

To highlight Tippy’s wonderful nature, the shelter has taken her to various adoption events across California, hoping to find her the right match. Libby Kovalcik, a RCHS behavior and training specialist, shared, “As a trainer, what I love the most about Tipperary is how smart she is. Tipperary is a loving and lovable dog, cuddly and affectionate. She’s a pleaser who has remained resilient during her stay, showing eagerness to learn lifelong skills from our devoted volunteers and staff,” as reported by People.
Such a loving pup deserves the best, which is why RCHS has made clear what Tippy is seeking. “Tipperary would thrive in a quieter, rural, or suburban environment. Since a proper lifestyle is crucial for a successful adoption, finding a suitable match for a sensitive dog like Tipperary in an urban area like San Diego can be particularly challenging,” explained Michele Moua, adoption services director.

With spring approaching, it’s a perfect opportunity to expand your loving family by welcoming another furry companion. And what better addition than Tippy? She possesses everything you could wish for: an adorable face, stunning fur, and an exceptional personality. If you or someone you know is seeking a new furry friend, look no further – Tippy is eager to show you the joys of life alongside a beloved pet!
