Story
Meet Chocolate Chip! Chip is still waiting for a home to call his own. This sweet boy is tender, gentle, and overflowing with love. Life hasn’t been easy for him. While we don’t know much about his past, it’s clear he still carries the weight of abandonment and abuse.He’s especially timid around men, and while we believe this fear comes from his past, it’s important to know he’s never aggressive — just unsure. With patience and understanding, he can learn to feel safe again.What Chip really wants is simple. He longs for love and connection. He needs a calm, patient home where he can decompress and begin to heal. A place where someone will show him, day by day, that the world can be kind again.Chip does wonderfully with kids (both boys and girls), women, and other dogs. He especially enjoys playing with his Great Dane foster sister, Euca!When it comes to men, he just needs slow introductions, some decompression time, and the chance to build trust. He doesn’t need to avoid men forever — he just needs someone who will go at his pace.He absolutely melts for gentle pets, soft forehead kisses, cozy cuddle sessions, and peaceful time outdoors. With time and love, Chip will blossom into the most loyal and devoted companion. If you’re looking for a soft soul to give your heart to, Chip is waiting.Chocolate Chip came to us with a limp and it has not healed with pain medication and anti-inflammatories so he is scheduled for a bone biopsy with his neuter to identify the cause of his discomfort. We will update once we have more information!To have your home considered for adoption, read about our adoption process or fees, and find out about interstate transport (dogs only), please visit our website.https://longwayhome.org/apply ❤ Long Way Home makes no guarantees on breed--most animals we receive from shelters are mixed breeds.
