Meet Chance! This super adorable, happy guy came to the shelter after his previous family decided they could no longer care for him. When he sees one of the staff or volunteer coming towards him he starts to do excited tippy tappys on the ground and is so ready to spend time outside. He shows a lot of love and will always give you his biggest smile. His excitement is unmatchable, but he is also ready for a nice nap and cuddle with his people. He is a big lap dog and doesn't completely understand the idea of personal space. He has done well with cats in his foster home and has previously lived with other dogs as well. Fill out an application for our Chancers to meet him!
