Chippy

Meet Chippy! He is a 20lb 6 year old Chihuahua mix. <br/><br/>This sweetheart was dumped outside of a PetSmart in a kennel in North Carolina. <br/><br/>From his foster:<br/>October update: <br/>Chippy is a very good boy- quiet and gentle! He's experienced some trauma in his early life but is learning to trust, come out of his shell, and live his best life. <br/>When the weather is nice he loves to relax in the sun, take a walk with his stroller, and meet new dogs in the neighborhood or dog park. Chippy is very food motivated and gets super excited at meal time and when he can earn treats. Chippy is great with other dogs, cats, and children. <br/><br/>August Update: <br/>He is very calm, a little timid and we have not heard a single bark out of him. He loves to snuggle, has a good appetite and enjoys prancing around the yard finding treats we put out for him. He has a passing interested in cats but no chasing instinct. He doesn't seem to have experience with stairs so we are approaching that slowly. He likes balls and will fetch!! <br/>He had a couple accidents through the transition but is getting into the swing of things.<br/>We are currently working on leash walking. <br/>He likes to be active in the yard and is starting to let loose but wants to be a very good boy. Easy to train with treats. He seems to match the energy level with the rest of us, relaxing when we need to work from home and getting excited for walks or backyard time.<br/><br/>*We only adopt and foster our animals within a 60 mile radius from New Brighton, MN*<br/>All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment.<br/><br/>Apply to adopt here: https://www.legendssenioranimalrescue.org/our-forms-2<br/><br/>Apply to foster here: https://www.legendssenioranimalrescue.org/foster-application <br/><br/>All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment.

We work hard to ensure that our rescues have a supportive family while at foster homes to help them move forward and get ready for their forever home. We work on training, crate-training and socialization before an animal is adopted out. Foster homes are extremely important to the success of the cat at their forever home, and it is extremely rewarding to be able to watch the cats growth as you help them on their journey to their happy ending. <br/>YOU CAN HELP: If you’re not able to foster or adopt right now, please consider sponsoring a Legend.
