About Chip

Meet Chip, the professional couch potato! This big-hearted fellow, known affectionately as The House Hippo, knows how to bring warmth and comfort to any home. He’s fully house trained, leash-trained, and at five years old, he’s matured past the puppy antics but still has plenty of love to share. Chip is great with other dogs and is friendly with kids too—ideal for a family atmosphere. His sweet and gentle personality shines as he insists on being a lap dog, often choosing to snuggle up and block your view of the TV. Rescued from a rural shelter just hours before euthanasia, Chip knows the importance of second chances and shows his gratitude daily. He’d thrive best in a home with other dogs, as he truly enjoys their company. Chip is eager to become a cherished part of your pack; could he be the one you’ve been looking for?
