Whippersnapper is a 6 month old Italian Greyhound x Dachshund mix who’s ready to bring the humor to his forever home! Snapper came from the shelter with a few of his pals. We don’t know how a guy as cute as he is landed behind bars, but we know his next chapter is looking fab! Snapper weighs 5 pounds currently and we expect he will stay under 10 pounds when he reaches his adult weight. He’s the perfect pip squeak puppy with the best smile in the world. Ready for cuddles and cute puppy kisses? Adopt Whippersnapper and change your life! 
 
 
Whippersnapper is a loving and cuddly little gentleman ready to make his mark on you! He is full of happiness and we haven’t seen his tail stop wagging since we met him. He is a pro cuddler and adores burrowing under blankets for naps with only his tail sticking out. Snapper is a faithful companion who trots after his people wherever they go. He is super curious and inquisitive, always investigating new things and discovering new adventures. He has started figuring out the whole “toy” thing and would love being spoiled by his new people. Snapper is the perfect mix of energy. He can be energetic when he is getting his zoomies out but he is also happy to chill and snuggle with you when you want a heating blanket. Even though he’s small, he is quite the little adventure dude! He can tackle hikes with ease as his little legs scamper up the trail. He also has amazing hops and his little bunny legs can spring him up unbelievable heights! Snapper has the cutest face and he is the perfect size to do just about anything with you! If you love the kind of dog who wants to be your faithful shadow, you won’t find a better bestie than Whippersnapper! 


Whippersnapper wakes up around 6 AM and goes out for a quick pee in the yard. He comes inside for breakfast and then heads out on a morning stroll. As his foster mom starts her workday, he snuggles on her lap and gets his snoozes in. He goes on another short walk at noon and then plays with his foster sibling for a bit. He spends his afternoon sunbathing and snoozing, occasionally checking out the toy chest and pulling a plush out. He has some more playtime as his foster mom wraps up her day before he has his dinner. He plays with his foster brother in the yard until the weather cools down enough for an evening walk. Once they return, he plays a bit more and romps around the house. He gets his cuddles on the couch as he watches TV. He goes out for one last potty and then goes into his crate for the night at 9 PM. 


Whippersnapper lives with another dog currently and he loves having a playmate. He gets along with the resident cat as well (she’s bigger than him). He likes meeting new people and finds a way to wiggle into any lap. He walks well on a leash and greets other dogs politely. Snapper is potty trained. He is smart and ready to show the world all he has to offer! Don’t be a downer, come meet Whippersnapper!
