More: Kipper was adopted on 2/4/21 from the local shelter. He was born 2 months before Covid and his socialization was limited. When he first came to me he was afraid of everything and reacted loudly and fiercely to all noises and many people. 10 months later, he is a very different dog; he goes up to people willingly for pats, likes going to the groomer, and loves to explore his environment. He is still a little skittish and reacts to some things but it is mild compared to previous times. He brings me lots of joy.
