Here’s a Dog with a Name That Will Instantly Put a Smile on Your Face!
Meet Skippyjon Jones!
This handsome boy is believed to be a mix of Collie Smooth and Siberian Husky.
While his listing photo at the animal shelter makes him look medium-sized, in person, he’s quite large!
I was taken by surprise when I seen him round the corner.

Before taking him out for a walk, I asked the shelter staff about his temperament.
They mentioned he’s a bit aloof, and that turned out to be spot on.
Honestly, I’m not sure if he even noticed there was someone on the other end of the leash! lol

Skippy is a strong puller, I thought at one point he was gonna choke himself, that’s how forceful he was.
As you could probably imagine, I found myself being dragged in every direction as he eagerly sniffed everything in sight.
This pup has a serious curiosity streak!
Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to get any great photos of him, but I did capture a quick video of him diving nose-first into the first sniffable thing he found outside the shelter.
All in all, I had a fun time hanging out with Skippy.
With a little patience and the right person, I’m sure he’ll make someone’s heart skip a beat.
