Ripp may not hear the world around him

Ripp may not hear the world around him, but he sure knows how to feel it. This strong-spirited yet kind-natured boy is as loving as they come.

He’s great with other dogs, enjoys the company of people, and has a heart full of devotion.

Being deaf doesn’t slow Ripp down one bit—he’s smart, attentive, and has picked up on hand signals like a pro. He walks beautifully on a leash, plays well with others, and loves nothing more than being part of the action. Whether he’s romping around with his friends or leaning in for some affection, Ripp’s gentle soul shines through in everything he does. He’s looking for a home that will embrace his unique way of navigating the world and love him for the incredible dog he is. For details, visit www.pawsshelter.org.
