Here's what the humans have to say about me:
**THIS DOG IS NOT IN THE DIRECT CARE OF HAPPY TAILS HAPPY HOMES - WE ARE ASSISTING IN THE REHOMING WITH ITS CURRENT OWNERS. If you are interested in this dog, please fill out an application here: https://www.happytailshappyhomes.org/adoptionform**
Chip (affectionately known as Chippy) is a 6-month-old Chihuahua/Terrier mix with a deeply loyal and affectionate nature. He forms strong bonds with his people and thrives when he can stay close to the humans he trusts. Chip is sensitive, intelligent, and playful, and he does best with routine, structure, and consistency.
Chip has special behavioral needs related to anxiety and would be happiest in a calm, low-stimulation home with an experienced dog owner. He has been evaluated by a veterinarian, and his behaviors — including a repetitive spinning behavior — are believed to be anxiety- or OCD-related rather than neurological. He is crate trained and views his crate as a safe, comforting space where he can settle and decompress.
Because of his sensitivity, Chip is not a good fit for a busy or chaotic household. He would do best in a quiet adult home without young children. He can be nervous and vocal around new people at first, but once given time and patience, he warms up and shows his sweet, affectionate personality. His interactions with other dogs can be hit or miss, so he would likely thrive as an only pet or with very slow, thoughtful introductions.
Chip was rescued from a shelter at approximately three months old, and his early background is unknown. With patience, structure, and continued training, he has the potential to be a deeply rewarding companion for the right person who understands anxious dogs and is willing to meet him where he is.
We are committed to ensuring the best possible match for Chip. Full details, videos, and veterinary records are available to serious adopters. He requires an experienced, patient home, and we are happy to continue fostering him until the right placement is found — one where he can feel safe, understood, and truly at home.
