This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information.Chance is at risk due to behavioral concerns. Chance arrived to the care center as a stray with no known history. During his time in care Chance was observed to be social jumping on handlers with a loose wiggly body and unable to be redirected with treats. While in foster, Chance redirected onto a handler after seeing a loose dog. Throughout his stay in the care center Chance has begun to kennel fight intensely with the other dogs in the room. Medically, Chance is apparently healthy.
The Foster writes:
If you're looking for love and affection with endless attention this is Chance a 6year 2 month old mixed breed dog. He is a calm gentleman he likes to lay around and catch the sun rays through the window. He will listen to all your music and never judge you when you're singing out of tune. The best part of the guy is his leash skills. He is very good on a leash. He will wait for the light to change while waiting patiently for you to cross. He won't pull towards birds or squirrels. He will whine if he sees a cat. Maybe he lived with cats before if he could talk you then you could know. Chance is a quiet type who likes to lay around. He is also always game for a game of ball tossing or tug of war and he loves to walk and walk.
A volunteer writes: This guy Chance is a very lovely dog. I have taken him out on several occasions. His preference seemed to be to sit with me on the bench and watch the scene.
Pros: Very easy going, calm, dignified, sweet and gentle as can be, affectionate, house trained, handsome.
Cons: None found
Come meet this charmer at Manhattan ACC.
My #BoroughBreak Buddy Writes: Chance is just a gentleman. He carries his size with grace and is so curious - he wanted to meet every person or dog that we passed, greeting everyone with a wiggly body and a wagging tail! He was energetic at the beginning of our time out and got more chill as we went along. He was friendly to everyone we met (and many people stopped to pet him :), and greeted the other dogs with delight. No barking; no jumping. Just sweetness. Hoping this sweetheart finds his forever home soon!
