Chick

My story

Meet Chick! 🐾 Chick is a 6-month-old, 26-pound (as of 4/4) Dutch Shepherd/Heeler mix who is blossoming more and more each week. Once a shy little shadow, Chick has truly come into her own. She's playful, silly, and always ready for a tug-of-war or a zoomie session around the yard. She's also incredibly snuggly and laid-back—an easy puppy to have around and love. Chick has made huge strides in just a few short weeks. She’s learning the world isn’t so scary, and has even started enjoying trips outside and exploring new places like the local pet store and her foster’s workplace. While she still gets nervous around loud trucks and trains, she’s already made noticeable progress just by hearing and seeing them from the yard. At home, Chick is respectful and sweet with other dogs. Once unsure, she now plays gently and even brings her chew toys over for a snuggle. She’s good at self-soothing and entertains herself with toys without being destructive. She's low maintenance for a puppy—independent, quiet, and not overly needy. Chick chills in her crate or on place, and doesn’t even bark at the door (even when the other dog does!). She’s doing well with house training—she’s great about holding her bladder and has never had a poop accident inside. She’s still working on giving clear signals when she needs to go out, so continued consistency and routine will help. Though not super food motivated, Chick is an easy dog to live with. She’s the kind of pup who thrives in a calm, steady home with people who are willing to let her warm up on her own timeline. Once she trusts you, you’ll see just how loving and loyal she is. Chick is also currently living with a cat—while she’s still trying to win the cat over, she remains respectful and curious. If you're looking for a mellow, thoughtful puppy who surprises you daily with little moments of joy, Chick just might be your perfect match.
