Story
Meet Chopper!
2 years old | 14 lbs | Yorkie / Jack Russell Terrier mix
Chopper is a fun-sized bundle of personality looking for his forever home! This adorable little guy was surrendered when his owner fell on hard times and could no longer provide the care he deserves. Now Chopper is ready for a fresh start with a family who will love him for life.
At first, Chopper can be a bit hesitant and nervous when meeting new people, but don’t let that fool you—once he realizes you’re a friend, he warms up quickly and becomes an affectionate, attention-seeking companion. When he’s comfortable, his energetic and playful side shines through!
Chopper would thrive in a home with a fenced yard, as he loves having the freedom to run and explore at his own pace. He hasn’t had much practice with leash walking, so he will need a patient adopter who is willing to help him learn that walks can be one of life’s greatest joys.
He enjoys spending time with his people and would likely do well with other dogs. While he has lived with cats, Chopper can be a bit over-the-top with his playful energy, so a cat-savvy home (and a tolerant feline) would be best - or no felines at all.
Chopper has lived with dog-savvy children, is crate trained (though he may protest vocally at times), and has shown a good understanding of house manners.
If you're looking for a small energetic dog with a big heart who just needs a little patience and a lot of love, Chopper might be your perfect match.
He’s ready to find a family to love him furever!

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS PET, PLEASE COMPLETE THE APPROPRIATE APPLICATION FOUND ON OUR WEBSITE HTTP://FUREVERTAILS.COM. Unfortunately, at this time we are not currently adopting outside of the state of MI. We process applications ONLY - there is no guarantee that you will get a response to an inquiry.
Many of the animals in our foster program come to us with limited or unknown histories. We make every effort to evaluate each animal’s temperament and behavior, including testing their interactions with other dogs, cats, and children (defined as individuals under the age of 18, when available). However, every animal is unique—just as every child and household environment is different.
While we strive to set both our foster animals and adoptive families up for success through thorough assessments and transparent communication, **we cannot guarantee any specific behavioral outcome**. Animals can be unpredictable by nature, and behavior may change in new environments or over time. By proceeding with adoption or foster placement, applicants acknowledge and accept this inherent risk and agree that no guarantees, either expressed or implied, are made regarding the temperament or behavior of any animal placed through our program.
FUREVER TAILS IS A NON-PROFIT, NO-KILL, FOSTER HOME BASED ANIMAL RESCUE BASED OUT OF OAKLAND TOWNSHIP, MI. OUR FOSTER ANIMALS ARE LIVING IN FOSTER HOMES AND TREATED LIKE FAMILY UNTIL THEY FIND THEIR OWN FUREVER FAMILIES. OUR ADOPTION PROECESS REQUIRES AN APPLICATION TO BE COMPLETED AND APPROVED BEFORE A MEET-N-GREET WITH THE ANIMAL CAN TAKE PLACE. ADOPTION FEES ARE NECESSARY TO HELP US COVER VETTING COSTS FOR OUR RESCUED ANIMALS.
