I have never owned a pet in my life and I always vicariously live my pet-owning dreams through my friends' animals. Chip is my boyfriend's precious little rescue Chihuahua. After meeting Chip for the first time, I fell in love with him and we bonded instantly. Every time that I've come over to my boyfriend's house, Chip immediately jumps from his position and comes to me to get all the love and belly rubs in the world. My boyfriend has given me the role of Chip's honorary mommy and it is quite possibly the best feeling in the world to share little Chip with him. I think everyone deserves to know a little about Chip and I will guarantee that you will all fall in love with him as I did.
