Chance, age 2 1/2

AVAILABLE SOON

Families with chickens need not apply… but just about anyone else will probably suit this nice fellow to a tee. (Well, maybe no cats either, just to be on the safe side.)

Handsome Chance was turned in to the shelter by his owner due to his penchant for hunting the family’s chickens. Great with little kids, adored by his owner, but… he killed chickens, and a rancher can't have that.

We don’t know Chance too well yet, but what we DO know is all positive! He seems to be a good, solid Golden.

“Great, small-framed red guy. Bright, open, lively, cute; seems to know some commands. Has the cutest facial expressions. Seems real gentle. Didn’t even try to bolt out of the crate when we got to the vet—he has manners. 

“Picked up Chance to keep him over the weekend. He rode well in the car and met all the dogs without a problem. He has been very well behaved so far. When you pet him he likes to take your hand and wrist in his mouth. He is very cute and small. He just really cracked me up looking at himself in the mirror. I went upstairs to put some clothes away and I have a full-length mirror in our walk in closet. He walked around and saw himself and it surprised him and his tail went up and he started wagging it and then gave a couple of little growls and then a bark and then went on his merry way exploring the rest of the upstairs. It really was very cute.”

More to come on Chance in the next week or so.
