About Chance

Chance makes a great impression on everyone he meets. He’s friendly, loves being around people, and is always up for a cuddle. You’ll find him happy on walks, watching the world go by at a relaxed pace, and gladly hopping onto benches to get close for extra snuggles. He enjoys playtime but can get a little overstimulated with too much excitement, so calm guidance suits him best. Chance thrives with a steady routine and matches his energy to the people around him. He wants to be the only pet in the home—Chance has a lot of love to offer and prefers keeping all the attention for himself. He’s looking for fostering with someone who can watch him closely. Curiosity gets the best of him sometimes (he once tried to eat a blanket), so he needs someone patient to keep him safe and out of mischief. While healthy now, a careful approach helps ensure he stays that way. Chance is always loyal, affectionate, and makes every day lighter. Take a "Chance" on him, and you’ll find a steady companion who always brings joy. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
