Meet Chip: The “Stowaway” Who Stole Our Hearts!
Chip is a 4-year-old, 35-lb Labradoodle mix with a story as unique as he is. Rescued as a surprise stowaway during a breeder surrender, this resilient boy is officially ready to trade his past for a forever family. Chip is a world-class “velcro dog” who lives for human connection—if you’re looking for a professional cuddler and a loyal co-pilot for road trips, he’s your guy!
While he’s a pro at relaxing, Chip also has a serious case of the “happy zoomies,” so a fenced yard is a must for his outdoor adventures. He’s currently working hard on his leash manners and “four on the floor” greetings; he’s a patient student who just needs a dedicated leader to help him shine. Chip is happy as an only child or with a canine sibling. Because he can be a little shy at first, he’d prefer a home that can offer him slow, gentle introductions to children.
