My journey to the shelter? Well, I was once in a park, chasing a squirrel—super serious business, you know. I zigged when I should've zagged and somehow ended up following a parade! Yep, a full-on parade. I marched along, thinking it was a new game. Turns out, it wasn't, and that's how I landed here. Now, I'm looking for a forever home where I can share endless games and laughs. If you love fun as much as I do, let's make our own parade at your place!

Breed overview
Overview:
The Chipin, a lively cross between the Chihuahua and Miniature Pinscher, originated in the United States as a designer breed. These small yet sturdy dogs typically weigh between 5-10 pounds, boasting a short, smooth coat that comes in various colors like black, tan, chocolate, and fawn. Physically, they often inherit the Chihuahua’s apple-shaped head or the Miniature Pinscher’s sleek build, with expressive eyes and alert ears. Temperamentally, Chipins are known for being affectionate, energetic, and surprisingly courageous, often displaying a "big dog" personality in a small package. They can be excellent companions for individuals or families with older children, and their compact size makes them highly suitable for apartment living, provided they receive adequate exercise. While generally healthy, potential health concerns include patellar luxation, dental issues, and heart conditions, inherited from their parent breeds. Early socialization and consistent training are crucial for a well-adjusted Chipin.
