Chop is a male dog who is just over 1-year-old and weighs 52-pounds. Chop has a friendly, excited personality that will bring a smile to anyone's face. Chop loves to go on walks, play with toys, and even other friendly pups. Chop is house trained, too! Chop has an adorable perpetually perplexed look due to cerebral hyperplasia, which is a neurological condition he was likely born with. It does not cause him any pain or ongoing medical issues, but can slightly affect his mobility (he can become unbalanced at times). His constant head tilt just adds to his charisma. Chop is a total ham and has never met a stranger. He greets everyone with love and enthusiasm. If you think Chop sounds like a great fit, come meet him at the AWLA!
