CHANCE is a big old lunk of a guy who seems to just be happy to be safe, warm and loved.  He's funny, fun, loving and looking for a forever home where he'll never have to worry again!

Chance spent a good amount of recently in boarding, waiting patiently for a foster home to open up.  He was a gem and staff loved him!  He was quiet, polite and never gave any trouble.  He was in play groups at the boarding facility - with large and small dogs - and has done very well with everyone.  He would love to have a doggie buddy in his forever home.   It's so much fun watching him play and romp because we can tell he knows he's loved and safe now. 

Chance has been in a loving foster home for awhile now, and is a big lover who would gladly curl up with you in front of the fire or TV, or settle down for a long winter's nap.  He also loves to play and is at that great adult stage of life where he's past the crazy-puppy-energy stuff and just a plain old great companion. 

Chance needs a home with a securely fenced yard - a 6 ft fence is strongly preferred.  His ideal family will play with him, take him for walks, take him to the pet store, and generally love, love, love him.  Just watch his video below, and you'll fall in love instantly with this big guy!

Whoever adopts Chance will be getting a loveable big boy who will be their loyal, loving buddy for life.  Is that YOU?  Are YOU the lucky ones?  Apply now before someone else snatches this gorgeous, sweet guy up!


DOGS:                      Yes.  He's been in play groups with large and small dogs, and has done fine. 
CATS:                       He will ignore some cats, and might chase others.  Supervision required.
KIDS:                       Older kids only, ages 10 and up.
IDEAL FAMILY:        An active family who will take him on regular walks, hikes and outings.  A securely fenced yard is required, 6' fence strongly preferred.
 

If you're looking for a mature, loving buddy 
who will be your fur-ever companion,
CHANCE may be your BFF!



Chance's ADOPTION FEE:   $200

This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save. On average we spend over $450 on each dog. We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then. We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit. At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip. In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

Good with Dogs, Not Good with Cats

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

  1. We're picky about our adopters. 
  2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
  3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
  4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
  5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
  6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
  7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
  8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
