Every dog has a story
Skipper
Skipper is Gilligan's bigger brother and one of Ginger's three newborn puppies, born just before his mama walked out of the shelter with her whole litter on 2026-09-02. Like his siblings Gilligan and MaryAnn, he was named for a crew of famous castaways. He's eating, growing, and being ridiculously tiny in his foster home, and he'll be ready for adoption in about seven weeks.
Their Journey So Far
Welcome Aboard
September 7, 2026Meet Skipper, Gilligan's bigger brother. Mama Ginger gave us two boys and one girl, and naturally, we had to give this little crew names worthy of their adventure. We're happy to report that everyone is doing amazing: the babies are eating and growing, and Mama is eating well and taking such wonderful care of her little beans. Right now, his days consist mostly of eating, sleeping, snuggling, and being ridiculously tiny. But before we know it, those little eyes will open, those wobbly legs will get moving, and he will turn into an actual puppy with a personality all his own. He has an incredibly gentle mama and has been safely and appropriately handled with love literally since the day he was born. He will be ready for adoption in about seven weeks, but for now, we get the absolute joy of watching he grow.
