Pippa is the official canine mascot for Kingsdale Animal Hospital. Although she is not a resident, like George, she spends a lot of time at the clinic and provides comfort to both staff, clients and patients alike.
Pippa was born in the southern United States and was adopted by Dr. Boultbee in the fall of 2015 when she was just a puppy.
She is a mixed breed dog and likely has traces of beagle and boxer included in her mix.
In her sparetime, Pippa enjoys chasing squirrels, going on forest walks (to try to chase more squirrels), eating cat food, begging for table food and taking long leisurely naps.
