My name is Chip!

🐾 Chip 🐾
Mini Australian Shepherd | Neutered Male | Approx. 1 Year Old | Brown & White
Chip is a young Mini Aussie who originally came from a backyard breeding situation. Thankfully, a kind Good Samaritan stepped in to rescue him. Unfortunately, due to financial constraints, she was unable to keep him long term, and Chip was placed in our care so he could find a stable, loving forever home.
Chip is very nervous and is still decompressing. He hasn’t fully shown his personality yet, but we know with time, patience, and consistency, his true self will emerge. He previously lived with other dogs, so we believe he does well with canine companions. He has been around a child in the past but has not been cat tested.
🩺 Current Medical Status:
• Neutered
• Dewormed
• Rabies vaccinated
• Treated for fleas
🕒 Adoption Readiness:
Chip will not be ready for adoption for another 3–4 weeks while he completes his vetting.
Once adoption-ready, Chip will be:
• Rabies vaccinated
• Distemper (DHPP) vaccinated
• Leptospirosis vaccinated
• Bordetella vaccinated
• Microchipped
• Heartworm tested
🏡 Ideal Home:
Chip would do best in a calm, patient home that understands fearful dogs and is willing to let him adjust at his own pace. A home with another friendly, confident dog may help him feel more secure.
