At 78 pounds, Ripper holds the title of biggest boy in the kennel—and he’s got the presence to match. Named after Jack the Ripper (a nod to his mom’s true crime podcast obsession), this powerhouse pup is as smart as he is strong. Recently, he impressed everyone on a skijoring run, proving he’s not just muscle—he’s a great listener and a natural leader. Now he’s leading big teams during winter tours like a pro.
Ripper is a character through and through. He’s got a bark that sounds more like a tugboat than a dog—“AWOOGA!”—and if you’re lucky, you might even catch him doing his signature “dance” during a dog tour, a goofy little move that never fails to bring smiles.
Though he’s sweet with his crew, Ripper isn’t one to be pushed around. He’s confident and self-assured, always standing his ground while still being a loyal and respectful member of the pack. One of his favorite things in the world is racing his siblings at full speed around the 6-acre dog yard—pure joy in motion.
Ripper isn’t available for adoption, but you can sponsor this incredible boy and support his care as he continues to thrive, lead, and entertain with that deep, unforgettable voice of his.
