Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is Kipper.

Here is Baypath’s description of Kipper:

“Meet Kipper, a 12-year-old senior sweetheart who’s the perfect blend of calm, silly and incredibly loyal. His foster describes him as easygoing, adaptable and happiest simply being with his people — whether that’s joining you on a walk, curling up for a couch snuggle or keeping you company while you work.

“Kipper is house-trained, crate-trained and knows an impressive list of cues including sit, down, paw, roll over and more. He loves his daily walks, travels well in the car and still enjoys bursts of zoomies in the yard. At night, he sleeps soundly in his bed.

“This distinguished gentleman enjoys the company of other dogs and may do well with a well-matched canine sibling, but he’s looking for a cat-free home.

“In honor of Adopt a Senior Pet Month, Kipper hopes someone will see what his foster already knows — senior dogs make extraordinary companions. Bonus: Kipper’s adoption fee has been generously sponsored!”
