Best Answer

a dog can get along well with a chinchilla as long as its alright with small animals/ rodents. I Warn you do NOT leave a dog and chinchilla unsupervised same with cats. all though some people train their dogs not to hurt chinchillas no matter how much effort you put into that the dog may still attack. i almost lost my chinchilla this way, as chinchillas like to be boss they like to jump and taunt the dog. anyway I would recommend it but NEVER leave them on their own.

Thx for lisening

It depends on the dog and how it was trained. If it was trained to get along with other animals then yea but a hunting dog that was not trained for anything but hunting will kill it in seconds.

What Are Chinchillas Friends?

Chinchillas are usually friendly, unless you don't give them a lot of attention. They are independent, but during the daytime will let you pet them. They are nocturnal, so its hard to hold them at night because they're so jumpy. It's best to get a chinchilla that's a baby, and them give them a lot of attention so that they will like you. If they like you, then they will be more friendly and it will be easier to hold them.
