Story
MEET MY FRIEND CHANCE!! Chance is about 6 months old and has only been in direct constant company with his litter mate Elsa. They do well together and share residence with two female horses. At birth there was a third litter mate that has since passed away. Chance is very timid and apprehensive around both men and women. He has unfortunately not had enough human contact and as a result is very shy and somewhat fearful. However, I personally have been working with him and I can tell he both desires and is eager to make friends with anyone who will be patient with him. He can be lured to take a treat, loves scratches behind his ears and accepts the treat with the utmost gentleness. I am not a professional dog trainer nor am I the owner. I am helping a friend in need who urgently needs to rehome Chance due to the friend’s health issues. I feel with patience and love Chance can be taught proper manners and obedience. Please take a look and email me for more information.
