Chocolate Chip was brought to the shelter as a stray after being found tied up in a park, but despite that rough start, he's shown himself to be incredibly friendly and social. He greets people with a loose, wiggly body, enjoys attention, and is eager to make new friends. While he can be a bit cautious at first with hands reaching toward him, his gentle, treat-motivated nature helps him warm up quickly.
My Ideal Home
Chocolate Chip would do best in a patient, loving home that can give him time to decompress and build confidence. Positive reinforcement, predictable routines, and gentle handling will help him feel secure. He'd enjoy daily walks, playtime, and basic training to help him polish his manners and channel his enthusiasm appropriately.
Good with Kids?
No young children. Chocolate Chip can be a bit fearful and is best suited for a home with older, respectful children who can give him space and let him approach at his own pace.
Good with Other Pets?
His history with other animals is unknown. In the shelter, he has been social and non-reactive, but slow, thoughtful introductions would be important with any resident pets.
Leash Manners
Chocolate Chip walks nicely overall with mild pulling at times. He's easily leashed and enjoys being out and about, and his leash skills should continue to improve with consistency and practice.
Overall Health
Healthy overall.
Behavior Determination
Level 1 - Chocolate Chip is friendly, social, and easy to handle, with some mild fearfulness and impulse-control behaviors that can be supported through training and positive experiences.
Other Fun Facts
Chocolate Chip knows cues like "sit" and "paw," takes treats very gently, and loves to play with toys. He's known for jumping up when excited and leaning in for pets, showing just how eager he is for connection once he feels safe.
