Meet Choco! This handsome boy is the perfect mix of playful and cuddly! Choco loves to have fun, but he's also all about those sweet, cozy moments right by your side. Born in November 2025, Choco is still a young pup with lots of love (and energy!) to give. With a Cane Corso dad and Malinois mom, he's going to grow into a strong, loyal, and highly intelligent companion, and he will need an experienced adopter who is committed to providing the structure and physical and mental stimulation required for working dog breeds. About Choco: Crate trained Potty trained (about 80%-still improving!) Great with dogs, kids, and people Playful, loving, and enjoys cuddles Smart and eager to learn Choco does exhibit food resource guarding around other dogs (only dogs, not humans fortunately!). Therefore, all meals and treats must be given separately from other dogs. Otherwise, he adores other dogs and loves to play. NOTE: Choco is being fostered independently and is not with House Hippo Rescue, but we are assisting with placement. If you are interested in adopting Choco, please send an email Gina at gina.tomaselli@gmail.com to request an application and discuss this dog. Please include a description of your experience with dogs.
