Story
Meet Chance! He is a 6-year-old handsome large-sized boy, weighing around 70 pounds, who’s ready to find a loving home to call his own. He originally came to us from a shelter in Florida, and he’s been patiently waiting since 1/22/2026 for his chance to find his perfect match.Chance is truly a staff favorite, and it’s easy to see why. He is a social, playful, and affectionate boy who loves spending time with people and soaking up attention. Once he’s had the opportunity to get some enrichment and activity, he settles into a wonderfully calm and cuddly companion who just wants to be close to his humans.He could do well in a home with children of all ages and would likely enjoy being part of a family setting where he gets plenty of love and interaction. Chance does have preferences when it comes to other dogs, so we require a dog meet and greet here at the shelter prior to adoption to ensure a good match for everyone involved.Chance is the biggest lovebug just waiting for his person to come for him. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. If you’re interested in meeting Chance or learning more, please reach out to an adoption counselor by phone at (517) 626-6060 or email at adoptions@adoptlansing.org.

Pairing new experiences with positive reinforcement will go a long way in helping him grow his confidence and feel secure.Dougee has done well with other dogs here at the shelter and enjoys playing with them, so he may enjoy a canine companion in his future home with a proper introduction.
