History[]
Background[]
Chop is a large Rottweiler dog. He is owned by Lamar Davis, but he lives with Franklin for the majority of the game’s storyline due to Lamar believing that Chop will be safer with him, which Franklin agrees to, saying that “it’s the best place for him anyway”.
During some missions, the player is able to switch to Chop in order to find certain people or checkpoints. Chop can also aid the player in finding Hidden Packages.
Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]
Chop first appears in the mission named after him, where he is brought along by Lamar to help kidnap a Ballas member named D. When D crashes his motorcycle and attempts to escape on foot, Lamar and Franklin have no choice but to run after him on foot, using Chop's sense of smell to aid in locating him. The player can switch to Chop's point of view while he searches for D. Despite Franklin having to intervene when he's distracted by the prospect of humping a male dog, Chop is able to subdue D, allowing Lamar and Franklin to apprehend him and pull him into the van. However, the duo are forced to free D when Lamar risks revealing their location. Once the mission has been completed, Lamar will call Franklin, asking him to take care of Chop for the time being, and from this moment on, Chop will spawn at Franklin's safehouse.
Chop later appears in the mission Hood Safari, in which he accompanies Franklin, Lamar and Trevor as they do a deal with some Ballas on Grove Street. The deal goes wrong, and a large gunfight ensues between the protagonists, the Ballas, and some policemen. Franklin orders Chop to go back home, to which Chop quickly flees the scene.
Chop appears once again in the mission Predator, in which he chases the O'Neil Brothers with Franklin and helps him locate Elwood O'Neil in the woods and take him out before he destroys Trevor's chopper with an RPG. The player can switch to Chop's view in this mission again, while he tries to find Elwood.
Events of Grand Theft Auto Online[]
Chop is still alive and living with Franklin as of 2021. By this time, Franklin is Chop's official owner, as evidenced by Lamar referring to Chop as "[Franklin]'s dog." In one of the Security Contracts, Franklin mentions that he's the only one he knows of in his neighborhood that owns a dog, with others having more exotic pets instead.
During the events of The Contract update, he is seen with Franklin at the F. Clinton and Partner headquarters. He has aged noticeably since the events of Grand Theft Auto V, with gray fur above his eyes and on his muzzle. Franklin mentions that he doesn't "get around too much no more." The player can interact with Chop by petting him.
Chop also helps Franklin and Lamar fight some of the Vagos during the mission Short Trip - Seed Capital by biting one of them and leading the two to the warehouse.
The Agency Security Guard is fond of Chop, certain that the Rottweiler could still reach any intruders that might break into the agency and rip them apart despite his old age. The dog also keeps him company during the night and will do anything for treats, in the form of jerky.
The player could transform into Chop after consuming a peyote plant in the backyard of the Clinton Residence during the Halloween Surprise 2019 event and from April 6 to April 13 in 2020.
Character[]
Interactions[]
It is possible for the player to obtain a throwable Ball in the weapon wheel, allowing them to be able to throw the ball for Chop to fetch. Chop will run after the ball and return it to the player, allowing them to pick it up and throw it again. If the player chooses to take Chop for a walk and gets into a car, Chop will get in the passenger seat of the car. Be aware that if the player has Chop with them and calls somebody on your phone to hang out, once they reach their location, Chop will get out of the car and run home while the friend gets into the front seat. For some reason, Chop will not ride in the back seat of any car and will not ride in the back of a van as he is shown doing in certain missions. He also ignores other vehicles (aerial or aquatic), although in a mission he can be seen aboard Trevor's Frogger.
The player is able to take Chop for walks anywhere, but caution must be taken around busy streets or thoroughfares, as Chop's AI is sometimes not intelligent enough to avoid oncoming vehicles. He can be killed in gunfights, and can also fall into swimming pools or other bodies of water and drown after a period of time, but he will always spawn back unhappily at Franklin's house. While walking Chop, he can attack pedestrians if they are targeted by Franklin, or if they attack him first. This can result in a two-star wanted level for Franklin and the police shooting Chop as well as Franklin.
Chop was customizable via the iFruit App on the player's Smartphone, by entering their Rockstar Games Social Club account in the app, and it would be connected to their Grand Theft Auto V copy. From the app, the player was able to buy any type of colored collars for Chop. Once changed in the app, Chop would wear the customized Collar in your GTA V game. He could also be taught various simple tricks and commands through the app, such as "sit" and "paw". His happiness meter would be directly influenced by his wellbeing in iFruit, which affected his behavior in-game. After the iFruit App's servers shut down on December 12th, 2022, all these functionalities have been lost and it is no longer possible to take care of Chop.
Behavior[]
Since Chop is an animal, no particular character traits can be distinguishable, and the only major determining factor for Chop's behavior is controlled through the iFruit app. If his happiness is low, Chop will be generally upset, and won't immediately respond to Franklin if he calls him or asks him to perform tricks. However, if his happiness level is high, he'll eagerly follow Franklin wherever he goes, and will perform tricks upon Franklin's request. Chop may bark or whine at the player if he approaches.
Chop is generally a friendly dog, but he will attack any NPC who inflicts injury to Franklin, or threatens him verbally. If the player throws a ball for Chop to fetch, he will always run over to pick it up, unless the ball lands in the water or in any other unreachable location. Chop's AI is shown to be quite intelligent, as he is able to navigate through corridors or obstacles with ease, always finding his way back to the player and rarely getting stuck.
In GTA Online, Chop can be found on his bed, sitting next to Franklin, sleeping under Imani's desk, or if the user has the personal quarters upgrade, he can be found sleeping on the player's bed or couch. If Chop is sitting next to Franklin, the user will be able to pet Chop.

Trivia[]
Plushie Chop.
Chop is the first non-human character in the series to play a main role.
Strangely, Chop has his own phone number and contact photo in the game files, though they are unused in-game.
As seen in several screenshots, Chop's collar was originally brown and pink.
In The Contract update for GTA Online, Chop may be seen with either of these collars, alongside a new black one.
Chop's signature color is red, as seen when switching to him in "Chop" and "Predator". The PS4 controller light and character wheel background color will switch to red when "playing" as him.
However, in the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, Chop's character wheel background color is green like Franklin's.
Chop, like all the other animals and dogs, can be shot (only by enemies or cops), killed and run over. Chop doesn't die permanently though, since he always respawns at Franklin's home if Franklin returns after Chop's 'death'. Killing him decreases his happiness completely.
A plushie of Chop was made available in a Rockstar Games collectibles giveaway on September 27th, 2013 and in a Snapmatic photo contest on October 30th, 2013. It was later made available in the Rockstar Warehouse for purchase on the 5th of December.
Chop is seen to be a very instinctual animal, as seen in the mission "Chop", in which he crudely engages in sexual intercourse with another male dog, much to Franklin's chagrin.
According to Lamar Davis' Lifeinvader page, Chop was also caught having sex with a cat. However, this may have been a joke on Lamar's part.
If Franklin gets into a Fieldmaster while walking Chop, he will order Chop to follow the "bike". This is most likely a developer's oversight.
If a vehicle is driven into the water while Chop is in it, he will immediately leave the vehicle and die suddenly. The only time Chop moves across water is the mission "Predator", where he swims across the creek with Franklin while chasing O'Neil.
When listening to the radio, if Franklin switches the radio to Blaine County Radio, West Coast Talk Radio, Worldwide FM, or Rebel Radio, Chop will bark a lot more often than listening to music stations.
Chop's dialogue in missions are subtitled as "Woof".
It is not possible to bail out of a moving vehicle while Chop is riding as passenger, instead resulting in bringing the vehicle to a complete stop no matter how fast the player is driving.
Xbox LIVE players can purchase Chop as a pet for their avatars.
Chop's appearance has been aged up significantly for The Contract Update in GTA Online. Considering this DLC is set 8 years after Grand Theft Auto V, Chop has become very old for his species. Rottweilers have an average lifespan of 8-10 years, but can live to be a couple of years older.
Oversights[]
If the player throws a grenade while Chop is following them, Chop will run after it and attempt to pick it up as if it was a ball. This will result in Chop either dying or getting seriously injured by the grenade's explosion. This glitch is most likely caused by the fact that the ball is in the same category as grenades usually are, therefore Chop's AI is unable to distinguish between a ball and a grenade.
Seeing as dogs do not know what grenades are, and have poorer vision than humans, coupled with the fact that grenades and baseballs are reasonably similar in shape this could be seen as normal behavior for a dog. As such, this may be intended behavior rather than a glitch.
It is possible for Chop to escape the yard on his own and run away. This has been confirmed with Franklin's Vinewood Hills safehouse; by having Michael or Trevor present at the house and switch to Franklin. When Franklin either exits the house or arrives there by car, the characters will interact as usual and the player can choose for them to go on an outing. As they enter Franklin's vehicle, Chop will run out the gate and down the road. Upon returning to the house later, Chop will be back in place.
This may actually be intentional, as occasionally after taking control of the Vinewood house, Chop will not be present and his bone icon nowhere to be seen. This suggests that like many dogs who are used to living outside or have access to the outdoors, Chop ranges around his home.
Due to a glitch, sometimes if the player exits a car while Chop was in the passenger seat, Franklin will reach over to open the passenger door, but after Chop jumps out, the passenger door will be stuck open, and no amount of physical force will be able to close it. This glitch can be fixed by getting back into the vehicle and allowing Chop to re-enter through the passenger door.
However, if Chop dies or runs away and Franklin re-enters the same vehicle, the door will still be stuck open. Driving the vehicle around will result in the passenger door wildly swinging open and closed, but it will never latch shut. This can only be fixed by destroying the vehicle, modifying it, or parking it inside a safehouse garage.
