Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is 10-year-old Kipper.

Here is Baypath’s description of Kipper:

“Kipper is a gentle senior looking for a cozy place to call home for his golden years. When Kipper first arrived at Baypath, he was underweight and in need of some TLC. But thanks to his foster, he has flourished with lots of love, good food and care. Now, Kipper is ready to share that love with his forever family!

“This sweet boy is the perfect mix of relaxed and playful! He’s fully house-trained and crate-trained, and enjoys showing off his tricks like ‘sit,’ ‘down,’ and ‘give paw.’ Kipper is always ready for a leisurely walk around the neighborhood, and nothing makes him happier than curling up next to his humans for a snuggle session afterward.

“Kipper is a true gentleman who thrives on affection. He would love a quiet home where he can enjoy a soft bed, some tasty treats and a warm lap to rest his head on. Despite his age, Kipper still loves a bit of fun — he’ll gladly impress you with his tricks for a treat and wag his tail in delight for some extra scratches behind the ears.

“If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your days with gentle love and cozy moments, Kipper is the one for you. Don’t wait — reach out today to meet Kipper and make his golden years truly special!”
