My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

File #24-185Current Foster Location: Lanark, ON *Please note that we do not typically adopt outside of a 2 hour radius from the foster dogs current location* Hey there! Im Chip, and let me tell ya, Im a real catch. I may be a little shy at first, but once I warm up, youll see what a sweet, loyal guy I can be. I got this adorable thing I do when Im happyI wave my two front paws in the air like Im givin you a round of applause. Yeah, I know, wicked cute, right? I get along great with the other dogs I live with right now. We sleep, we play, and Ive been learnin a lot from them. They make me feel safer, yknow? I like to stick close to emmakes me feel part of the crew. On walks, Im all about stayin right by your side, no pullin or fussin. And when youre in the kitchen, Ill be there too, just in case a piece of cucumberor, lets be honest, any snackhappens to hit the floor. Even though I like to follow you around, Im still a little cautious when it comes to bein picked up. Im cool with it if were on the couch or the bed, but otherwise, I like to take things slow. Im workin on trustin people more each day. At night, I love to snuggle up next to my foster mom, keepin her company while she relaxes. But, full disclosureI got a bit of separation anxiety. I dont love bein alone, so itd be great if you have another dog for me to hang with or if youre around a lot. So, if youre lookin for a cute, cautious, and loyal pal with the best paws in the game, Im your guy. What do ya saywanna give me a chance?
