Chopper

My story

Meet Chopper, born Feb 8, 2025. When we brought Mom-Dog Helena up from an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky back in December, little did we know she’d be delivering puppies a couple months later. Her six puppies one boy and five girls are absolutely adorable. Helena (the mom) is likely a Chihuahua Mix (she looks like a baby coyote!) and of course we have no idea of the breed of the father-dog. We expect the puppies to grow to an adult weight no greater than 20 lbs. However any adopter must be aware and accepting if the puppy grows into a larger adult! Chopper has visited the vet a couple of times, has been de-wormed, is up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations. He will be neutered when appropriate (we do not do early spay/neuter). His neuter and micro-chipping are included in his adoption fee as long as it is done by our vet clinic. Chopper and his litter mates will be ready to move along to their forever homes early June. If you might be interested in adding him to your family, please email BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com for information on adopting, and for an adoption application. BAARK is located in Barrington IL and adopts local to our area.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Chopper, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
