Chance

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Can you imagine spending your entire 10 years of life in a rescue with no real family to call your own? Chance came to the rescue when he was just 6 weeks old, when he was found with his six siblings. They were dumped by a day care center when they became sick with the parvo virus. Two of the litter were already in the final stages when we rushed the litter to the hospital. Unfortunately, only Chance survived, starting his lonely journey. Chance spent almost two weeks battling Parvo. When he returned from the hospital, he had to spend an additional two weeks in quarantine. He missed out on 4 weeks of critical socialization time. He trusted his team at the rescue, but he was very wary of potential adopters. This limited his chances at a real home for years. Five years ago, an older Shar Pei named Chula came to the rescue when her owner was found dead. Chula's daddy was a close personal friend of our founder, who bailed Chula and her brother Booger out of the pound. They had been placed under a bite quarantine for protecting their dead owner when the strangers came to do a wellness check. They were brought to the rescue where they could decompress. Booger was adopted, but Chula wasn't understanding how she went from pampered housedog to living in a kennel by herself. A decision was made to place her with Chance and see if they could make a connection. The transformation of both dogs was incredible. Chance became sociable and would allow us to leash him and take him for walks with Chula. Chula enjoyed getting out of the kennel and playing. They started spending the day in our exercise areas playing and running. Chance even let new people approach him and walk him. He loves running next to the golf cart. Chance only has a few more years if he is lucky. We really want to see him get the opportunity to know what it is like to have a family. He never poops in his room, he always waits to go outside. Ideally, we would love for him to find a home with Chula, who is also very well behaved in a home. Unfortunately. we know it is rare for two older dogs to find a home together. Who is the special someone that will see CHANCE'S photo, fall in love, and give him his FIRST REAL HOME? He can be very timid around new people, but given an opportunity, Chance will gain confidence and show you his true personality. Chance's ideal home will be an older family without small children and no cats or small dogs. He enjoys playing with toys and Chula in the rescue's exercise yard. He would love and needs to have a home with a fenced yard with perhaps a companion dog so they can play and explore the yard together. Chance is a handsome dude with his dark, black fur and white spotted chest. He currently weighs Weighing in at 80.4 pounds. Are you the hero that Chance has been dreaming of?
