About Tripp

Introducing Tripp!

Tripp is a big, bright, and energetic young dog with a heart as large as his personality. This sweet and loyal boy is full of enthusiasm for life and is always ready for his next adventure. Having spent some time on an acreage, Tripp absolutely loves being outdoors and thrives when he has space to run, play, and burn off his impressive energy.

As a very high-energy youngster, Tripp is still learning how to manage his excitement. He can be jumpy and mouthy at times, especially when he’s feeling happy or overstimulated, and he doesn’t always realize just how strong he is for his age. Because of this, a home with teens 13+ is recommended, along with adopters who are comfortable working with a large, active dog.

Tripp already knows some basic cues, which is a great foundation, and he’s eager to continue learning with a family willing to invest in his ongoing training. Tripp adores toys—especially chew toys—and they’re a great outlet for both his energy and his busy mind. He will also need support with leash walking and everyday manners, as he’s still adjusting to structured walks and routines.

With consistency, positive reinforcement, and patience, he has all the potential to grow into a well-mannered and confident companion. A securely fenced yard is a must for Tripp, as he will benefit from a safe space to play and explore.

Despite his bouncy, sometimes over-the-top enthusiasm, Tripp is truly a loving boy who forms strong bonds with his people and wants nothing more than to be included. For an active household looking for a fun, devoted, and adventurous young dog, Tripp is ready to bring endless energy, affection, and loyalty—along with lots of learning and laughter—into his next chapter!
