About Chip

Chip is an adorable 10-week-old Chihuahua puppy, the product of an unexpected litter. Sadly, he was surrendered when his previous owner could no longer care for him and his siblings. Chip is a true sweetheart who loves to be held and is eager to make new friends; he will gladly approach anyone. He's doing well with potty pad training and has been socialized with both dogs and cats. You'll find Chip to be a great match for a family with gentle children. Currently, Chip is waiting for his forever home at The Pack United Rescue in Mississippi. He will be available for adoption beginning on our transport to Northeast pickup locations on October 2nd, arriving one to two days later depending on the stop. His travel routes include Hagerstown, MD; Harrisburg, PA; and several other locations. When adopting Chip, you can expect him to come microchipped, up-to-date on vaccinations, and with a free Fi GPS Tracker and subscription. Since he and his siblings are still very small, they cannot be spayed/neutered yet, so an agreement will need to be signed to have this done at your vet. Adopters are also welcome to visit Mississippi to pick up Chip without incurring transport fees. Ready to adopt? Start your application today to welcome this wonderful puppy into your home!
