Here's what the humans have to say about me:
“If you are looking for a completely devoted canine companion, Chance may just be your guy. Chance has had a very rough start in life to say the very least. From what we can put together, he spent quite a bit of time on the street fending for himself. By the time he came into the custody of animal control he was severely overgrown, and matted to the point where his skin was burned by his own trapped urine and feces. He was slated for euthanization when a shelter worker “saw something in his eyes” and took the time to clean him up, in the process finding three barbed fish hooks embedded in his skin. He was taken in by a rescue group and ultimately made his way to Central New York, but with all that he had been through, the worst was yet to be discovered. He was taken in to HH’s vet for an apparent bowel obstruction/possible constipation. His x-ray shocked even the vets. It was discovered that at some point his pelvis had been completely shattered, presumably he was hit by a car. He managed to suffer through the pain of that injury and somehow survive without any veterinary care. The tissues surrounding the bones had healed, keeping the bones enough “in place” that he is very mobile, running, playing and jumping almost completely normally, but he will require medication daily to avoid complications. Chance is a survivor in the truest sense of the word, and despite his rough start, wants a human of his very own. He is loving, loyal and bonds quickly. He is protective of his person and would do best with a single mature individual. He is jealous of other dogs and therefore would be best as an only dog, but seems to love cats! He is a very handsome boy with a lot of love to give. He will require an owner who is willing to patiently allow him to adapt to a new environment and “learn his language”. He is, however, a truly devoted companion who wants nothing more than to be near his person. Apply today at www.hubbardshounds.com if you can provide the loving home this boy needs!
