    Not an IG but a great little Chi

    Attn Chi lovers: Why aren’t you adopting this boy??? He is FABULOUS! He is everything you want in a Chi. His house breaking is fantastic, he is crate trained, leash trained, smart and funny. He has an adorable, quirky personality! He likes to talk to you and tell you all about his day. But he also knows what “quiet” means, and will settle down if you want him to. Learn more about Lucas or contact Julie.
