Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there, my name is Chip and I was dumped with my best friend Dale next to a dumpster behind a PetSmart store in San Antonio Texas. I should be grateful we were not put inside the dumpster like many dogs in Texas, but either way, the manager spotted us and called 4 Little Paws Rescue. I’m a handsome Chihuahua mix, about 2 years old, weigh 10 lbs, and am a sweet boy, shy at first and I get along great with other dogs. I love to play and run outside with all my doggy friends and I am starting to get the hang of doggy toys, so I guess I never had one. I am affectionate and kissy and I LOVE attention. Sometimes when my foster mom works at her desk I’ll climb into the chair with her and take a nap. I am working on some housebreaking skills and practicing with a leash. I love going for car rides, only bark to alert, and don't chew on your things or dig in the yard. I’m sweet and grateful to get another chance to find a better family and now that I’m neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, I’m officially ready to announce… I’m AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION, and I want the whole world to know, although I will be heading to Connecticut next week when I move, so the whole world will need to live somewhere nearby, LOL.
* 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.
