My story

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

--FOSTER PUPDATE--
Chipper A179772
35 lb. neutered male, approx 4 years old

-I’m a sweet, affectionate, and super smart boy who loves making new human friends.
-My specialty? Giving lots of kisses and staying close to the people who show me love.
-I’m treat-motivated, easy to train, and I already know my basics—sit, lay down, up, and stay. Gold-star student incoming!
-I’m a medium–high energy pup who loves kicking off the morning with a fun toy session.
-Walks are one of my favorite activities, and I strut nicely on leash like the gentleman I am.
-I’m happiest when I’m with my people. I can feel a little sad when left alone, so I’d make an amazing work-from-home buddy. With some patient training, I’ll gain more confidence being on my own.
-I currently live with my foster dog brother—we get along great (even though he totally lets me be the boss).
-I haven’t met kids or cats yet, but I’m open to making new friends with the right introductions!

This pet is in a foster home! If you are interested in meeting Chipper please email foster@friendsofdacc.org with subject line “Chipper A179772”
