Even before Lisa and her family left Washington to come to Texas they knew they wanted a dog, but they also knew that Texas had one of the highest rates of homeless/shelter animals in the country, so they waited until they moved here to start their search.
Fortunately, Skipper had decided to wait too. Born last December, he is the last of the nine Gilligan’s Island puppies to get adopted. Why it took so long we don’t know, but I like to think it was Kismet.
Skipper, now Nico, joins a young family with two cats. He’s spoiled silly, goes to the dog park weekly for doggy romps, cozies up to the kitties on chilly nights, and is very, very well-loved.
HUGE thank you to Melanie Young and her family who kept Skipper until just the right family came along. He will be missed.
