Meet Chance!! He is a handsome boy, approximately 2 yrs old, 50 lbs. He was originally found as a stray and we pulled him from a kill shelter. Boy is he happy to be sprung from there!! He is WONDERFUL with humans, craves attention and LOVES a good scratch behind the ears. He also enjoys a good brushing! The ideal home for Chance would be a family that will spend a lot of time with him and let him get all the exercise he needs. He loves walks and romping around in the yard. Chance is very energenic and smart, he is picking up commands quickly. He is crate trained, fully vetted and neutered. Please consider giving Chance the home he surely deserves.
**UPDATE from Chance's foster parents: He can become hyper when playing with another dog, sometimes he gets pretty crazy and you need to calm him down. But when he's alone without other dogs, he's calm and will just sit on the couch with you, let you rub his belly, hug him or play with him. We don't know how he would do around very little children, but we think he would be fun to play with and walk for kids around 10 or higher. He IS NOT good with kitties! He does not like being in the car at all, we think it’s because he doesn't know what is going to happen to him, poor doggie. But that can be worked on by bolstering his confidence. Chance is fun to play with, highly intelligent, loves to go for walks, and is just the most adorable dog, who needs a lot of attention. He is for the most part housetrained.
