About Chance

Meet Chance: your loyal, adventure-loving wingman! This handsome, 3-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier is mostly white with a charming black eye patch. Chance’s journey began at a dog park, where he patiently waited for a family that never returned. Luckily, Peps Pals Rescue stepped in, and now he’s in search of a forever home to call his own. Chance is affectionate and thrives on human connection. He adores car rides and enjoys charming the baristas at Starbucks for his favorite pup-cup! Well-mannered at home, Chance is both house-trained and crate-trained. He’s a "sensible eater" who takes his time to savor every morsel. While he loves going for walks and is great on a leash, he's still learning not to jump when meeting new folks. And if there’s water, you can bet he’s splashing around! The ideal home for Chance would be an active family that can match his energy and continue his training. He’s good with most dogs but prefers to avoid larger ones that share his dominant personality. While he’s fine with cats, he'd thrive with a confident feline. Chance is currently fostered in TX but is ready to travel to his forever home! With an adoption fee of $300 and a microchip registration of $13, he's waiting for a loving family to finally bring him home. Don't let this handsome boy wait any longer for the love he deserves! Start your journey together! Apply now.
