About Chance
Meet Chance! Chance is a loyal and intelligent heeler mix, creating deep bonds with those he trusts. While he can be protective around unfamiliar dogs, he is incredibly affectionate and eager to please once he knows you. He's motivated by food and enjoys chew toys, naps, and car rides. Chance has fared well with low to medium energy dogs, though he hasn't had much experience with kids. He'll thrive in a calm, low-energy home. At 7 years old, Chance has lower exercise needs due to his age and history of heartworm. He appreciates a structured, routine lifestyle that allows him to feel safe and loved. His ideal adopter will be committed to supporting his recovery from spinal surgery, including attending rehab sessions and following the neurologist's guidelines to avoid high-impact activities. Chance benefits from having someone around most of the time, though he can manage short alone periods. Currently, he is managing incontinence with a consistent routine and belly bands with regular manual bladder expressions. Chance does well holding his bladder between these expressions, and there's hope for more independence as he continues to heal. This sweet dog is searching for a patient adopter who can provide the care and love he needs to live a comfortable life. While it may seem a bit daunting, Chance is just like any other dog, and will repay your commitment with loyalty and affection. Will you be his hero? Street Dog Hero has cleared Chance for adoption, and he's ready to find his forever home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
