What is America's Favorite Pet?
Learn MoreHe ONLY likes Goon 'n' Fun Triple Flavor Wings. He's a very picky eater so mommy has to cook for him often. Right now his favorite toy is a Christmas pickle squeaky, but he loves playing ball most.
Chupi has learned that treats come from Amazon. After fearlessly chasing the driver away, he insists on opening and snooping through every delivery.
Chupi represents resilience, compassion, and the quiet power of second chances. He survived impossible odds as a newborn rescue and grew into a deeply bonded, emotionally intuitive little soul who brings comfort wherever he goes. He reminds us that love—given early and often—can change everything.
