My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

~~THIS DOG IS **NOT** IN THE CARE OF THE ALTERNATIVE HUMANE SOCIETY. PLEASE CONTACT THE OWNER DIRECTLY AT n.monro30@gmail.com  THANK YOU~~



Chance is a 6 year old lab-mix who has been an incredible family dog. He is neutered and up-to-date on his shots.  We want to make sure he goes to the right home so his rehoming fee with be discussed with interested parties only.



Chance is very affectionate, athletic, and eager to please. He has been in a house with very young kids and is great with them- very patient and sweet. He loves to hike, camp, and LOVES to chase a ball. He is very energetic and playful, but will also happily cuddle up on the couch.



Chance gets along with other dogs when we are out and about, but he does not want to live with another male dog. We believe he would do best as an only dog but with slow, proper introductions may be ok with another dog. He gets along fine with cats.
