Good for you!
(I promptly fell in love with him from the picture you posted!)
If he's technically a surrendered dog (I don't know the legalities of that) all you need to do about the chip is change the registering information. The vet can read the number for you, and then you pay a fee to the chip company to change the information associated with that number. For my dog's chip it's something like $10 every time I change the info in his computer file.
That's assuming he has a chip.
I also hope you find a home for him quickly. But if you don't, just let TE know! I bet you there are more than a few of us willing to instantly pull out all the stops to adopt him!
