Story
Hi there, I’m Chip! I’m an 8-year-old, 8-pound Maltese boy, and I’m looking for my new BFF. I know what you’re thinking — a Maltese this adorable must have some catch. Nope! My foster family genuinely can’t stop raving about me, and honestly? I get it. I’m smart, playful, easygoing, and I love pretty much everyone I meet — people, dogs, you name it. I just have a lot of love to give! My house manners are excellent (you’re welcome), and I am always down to be wherever the action is. Right in the middle of things, right next to my humans — that’s my happy place. I’m talking day AND night, and yes…I’ve got my eye on that big bed. I also happen to be the world’s best travel companion. Car rides? Love them. Adventures? Let’s go. I’m small, compact, and perfectly designed to be somebody’s shadow wherever life takes you. I do need to shed a tiny bit of weight (my foster mom says I’m “fluffy”), so a daily walk would be chef’s kiss for both of us. Which, by the way, I love walks — so that works out perfectly. If you’re ready for a sweet, devoted, always-by-your-side good boy, I’m your guy. Apply to adopt me through our website, www.floridacockerrescue.org. Adoption fee: $395
