CHIP

Description

OTHER PETS: Chip has shown interest in other dogs but has not initiated play. He's a great communicator and gives feedback to other pups when he's uncomfortable. While he enjoys initiating play, he has a rough play style that may be too much for some. Another well socialized dog who is ok with rough n' tumble play may be a fit. A meet is a must. [Likely (With proper introduction)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Experience with positive reinforcement or willingness to learn will be the best match For Chip. Additionally, due to Chip's high energy he is likely not a good fit for a first time owner. [Some Experience] KIDS: Chip's can sometimes be a bit of a bull dozer during play, likely knocking over small humans by accident making Chip a poor fit for households with people below the age of 15. Minors and children should be actively supervised to keep everyone safe and comfortable. [15 +]ACTIVITY LEVEL: Chip, a young/adolescent pup, still has a lot of the energy and will benefit from an owner that can give him plenty of age appropriate exercise combined with mental enrichment such as food puzzles, games, sniffing, and learning new tricks to fully meet his needs, as well as plenty of rest in between![Good Walking Buddy / Olympic Athlete]VETERINARY CARE: Regular visits to the Vet will help keep Chip in ideal health in a new home.[Routine] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Chip may be a counter surfer in a new home. Positive reinforcement and effective management (setting up the envrionment to help him succeed, like removing food items and temptations) will help him form a strong human-canine bond whlie learning new skills and fun tricks, and building confidence as he matures. [Moderate] GROOMING: Regular brushing we help decrease Chip shedding in the house.[Minimal]
