Rise and shine — hi! Ripley here.

I'm fairly certain I was born knowing what you meant before you finished saying it, though I do appreciate someone patient enough to remind me anyway.

They wrote that I love to play. Understatement. I'd hike, fetch, and nap with you, in that order.

Born and (almost) raised right here in Newport Beach.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Thanksgiving — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.

Anyway, thank you for reading all the way to the end. Not everyone does, and I noticed. — Ripley

About Ripley

Ripley is a 2-year-old Belgian Malinois weighing 50 pounds with the intelligence and intensity characteristic of his breed. He is highly social and enjoys people, but thrives with clear communication and an engaged owner who can provide structure and continued training. Ripley is currently working with a professional trainer on leash focus and responding to his handler's direction. He is best suited for an active home where someone can continue nurturing his capabilities and work with him as a capable partner.
