My story

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

Update: 11/04/25

Chopper would like to speak - I have been with 3 UYR Fosters now on my long road trip and all I keep hearing is that I am such a sweet little boy and it's easy to fall in love with me right away. Awww........I am very affectionate, love to be near my human and I like to cuddle with her when we sleep. I am a very good eater, which is a good thing, as I am much too skinny and they are trying to put some weight on me. I have gained a pound! Yippee!
I get along well with the resident senior dog. My only little quirk is that I won't walk on the leash. If I could talk, I could tell you why, but foster Mom is just figuring it might be lack of experience. So she is slowly working with me to help me like doing that.

I am going in this week for my neuter, dental and pedicure. Once I heal from that, I will be ready to rock n' roll my way to you.

I know I am a senior, but I am a spunky little guy and if you welcome me into your home and heart, I promise I will love and cherish you for the rest of my life.
