My story

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

CHANCE – have you ever seen a more handsome fella? Just a few things about this sweet guy.
The vet believes that Chance is between 18mo - 2yrs old and weighs 59lbs.
• He is heart worm negative and neutered.
•He is super sweet and gentle - wants to cuddle and be near his person.
•He is dog-friendly (the foster doesn’t have cats, so we are not certain if he’s cat-friendly)
•He is people-friendly to everyone he has met. Foster does not have small children, but he has been fine around children on walks. Due to his size and youth, he might knock down small children, but he is not aggressive.
•He is house broken. Even in the rain and snow he has let us know he needs to go out.
•He is a little timid to new people at first, but warms up quickly.
•He very rarely barks.
•He has learned to sit, walk on a leash, and “wait” for his food bowl to be put down.
•He is very food motivated, so can be easily trained with treat rewards. He is not reactive when eating.
•He can be possessive over certain toys with a low, warning growl if another dog tries to take it from him.
•He is not interested in fetching a ball, but loves chew toys and antlers.
• He can be very active, but is also happy cuddled up with his person.
•He would do great in a house with another dog, but would be fine as an only dog also.
Once adopted Chance will travel via private transport (transport cost is $160.00) to a location closest to you. If you would like to make this pretty boy part of your family please follow the link below to our application.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process starts right here – you finding yourself your new best friend and family member. Once you have found one of these beautiful souls we ask that you complete an adoption application.

Once the application has been approved, the selection process begins. As with any adoption, we want to ensure our dogs are going into the best fit home – not only for them, but for you as well. Pet adoption is a big commitment and we want to make sure these dogs don’t endure anymore hardships than they already have.

The final step in the adoption process is the spay/neuter contract (assuming the puppy is too young or unable to be spayed or neutered at the time of adoption).

Once the adoption process has been finalized and we have received payment, we will make reservations for transport to your area. **Please note: Most of our dogs are fostered in Memphis, TN - our transport runs about once every other week to the Midwest.**

More about this rescue

We are a rescue based out of Memphis, Tennessee with fosters and chapters in various parts of the United States. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home as many homeless pets in the mid-south as we possibly can to save them from euthanasia. Their only fault...there are just too many. The euthanasia rate in this city is a staggering 79%. We watch perfectly healthy, well-adjusted pets be euthanized daily because there simply are not enough homes for them all. The solution...stronger spay/neuter laws and education but until then, these pets deserve a future too!
