My story

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

Hank is a German Shepherd/Malinois mix (70/30) born August 20, 2024. He came to Mikeys suffering from Parvo, but is now all fixed up. Hank’s initial greet is shock and awe as he tries to protect his people and his space. However, about one minute in, he wants to learn more about you, and will ultimately be the best cuddle bug you can ever imagine. While he will display teeth, there is no bite to follow. Hank is fully house trained. He has a rock-solid kennel recall, and with a Kong will spend time amusing himself for a couple of hours. He has a great sit and down and is always eager to learn new tricks. He is definitely food motivated. He is good on-leash when it’s just Hank and his human. When off-leash, he has a very good recall. He hasn’t quite learned what “chasing the ball” is all about, but when others are playing, he’s along for the fun. Cats seem to fascinate him, so any interactions should be closely monitored. He gets along fine with some cats. Not so well with others. His demeanor may be a little much for younger non-dog-savvy kids. He very much likes to control his territory, so when UPS comes to the door, Hank will let them know that they have to get by him first. He’s become a very enjoyable part of our family, and our pack, in just a few months. With love, consistency and training he will be a wonderful addition to your home. Hank is looking for an active family to romp with him and a securely fence yard. Children should be dog savvy and over 5 years old. Applications: www.mikeyschance.com

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require an adoption application to be filled out which includes personal references. An in-Home check by a Mikey's Chance volunteer is also performed prior to adoption. Our dogs come to the adopter "ready-to-go" with current Vet health checks, all shots and vaccinations current and the animal spayed or neutered, as well as micro-chipped.

Our adoption process can take 2-4 weeks to process as we are run completely by volunteers, all of whom work full time jobs.

Go meet their pets

We depend on a network of volunteers and fosters for the care of our dogs. The dogs are fostered primarily in Tri-Cities, WA. We often have Meet 7 Greet events at Petsmart and Paws Natural Pet Emporium LLC both in Kennewick.

To find out about these and our other events check us out on Facebook or at our website at MikeysChance.com.

More about this rescue

"Mikey's Chance" is a dog rescue organization organized under Washington State articles of Incorporation as a Non-profit Charity. We focus mainly on saving dogs that are at risk or on “Death Row” in shelters in our area, and placing them to great families. We work with individual adopters, private rescuers, and rescue organizations that share our values. All our dogs are up to date on shots, sterilized, and microchipped prior to adoption, and they are all carefully evaluated to ensure the best possible match with adopters.
