Chance is even cuter in person than he is in his photos but don’t let that baby face fool you. This little guy is approximately 3 years old, is very intelligent and needs an experienced owner that can be his alpha leader. Chance has been sponsored by Jessica Brock.

Weighing less than 20 lbs, Chance is actually a very strong and hardy little dog. He bonds very strongly with his people and is extremely affectionate. Although he is friendly with people of all ages and loves to play with other dogs when off leash, he is very protective when on leash and will guard his people from strange dogs that approach too closely. He thinks he is a big dog and will not back down from a fight regardless of another dog’s size. For this reason Chance was given up for dead in a kill shelter however with the right owner, a backyard to play in and opportunities to socialize off leash with other dogs, Chance could be the perfect little companion.

Chance does want to be with his people whenever possible and would need to be considered as part of the family. He is crate trained and can stay on his own without issue for a normal working day but would need a brisk daily walk. He is very clean and well behaved in the home, loves to play with toys and can amuse himself very well. Although he loves to cuddle he does not need to be in your lap but rather is content to lie at your feet.

Chance is a very healthy dog and once he bonds he is very responsive, and loyal to his person and can even be trusted off leash. In the right situation Chance would be a wonderful and fun pet and we are hoping that he finds someone that is willing to give him that opportunity. He would be an excellent companion for someone that lives alone and who would appreciate an intelligent, obedient, loyal, and loving little dog.
