About Chaps
Meet Chaps, a sweet-natured Kelpie x Beagle puppy born on 15 December 2024.
True to his breed mix, Chaps is a bundle of energy wrapped in a black and tan coat of loyalty and affection. His expressive eyes and wagging tail melt the heart, and his sociable nature makes him a great companion for both adults and children alike.
He's an intelligent and playful pup, who will thrive in a loving and active home. Whether it's a game of fetch in the backyard or a brisk walk in the park, this little pup is always ready for action. Combining a Beagle's playful spirit and a Kelpie's keen intelligence, he's bound to entertain you.
Chaps loves people and other dogs. He's untested with cats. He's learning to walk nicely on a leash, but has some way to go. Being a puppy, he's easily distracted!
His ideal home will have someone around most of the time, a compatible dog to play with, and ample opportunity for exercise and mental stimulation. He's definitely not suited to a solitary life in the backyard and will thrive as an integral member of a loving family - whether that's just one human or many.
So if you're looking for a dog who is intelligent, trainable, and loyal to his humans, Chaps could be the boy for you.
His adoption fee includes the cost of desexing when age appropriate.
As always, secure fencing is essential.
