Chance is a deaf dog. He is incredibly smart, but due to his being deaf, he needs to be stimulated in different ways than some of the other dogs. He has really enjoyed his Kong toys. From his Petfinder profile: “This companion animal’s name is Chance. Chance is a sweet, outgoing boy who is looking for someone who can help him learn and grow into the amazing boy he is. He is a happy-go-lucky dog who enjoys hanging out with his people. He would be an amazing best-friend dog and would enjoy someone who likes training. We believe Chance is deaf, but it doesn’t stop him from enjoying life and having a good time. Chance wouldn’t mind being an only dog, or buddied with a dog he gets along with. He has several dogs he really enjoys playing with. He is crate-trained, walks nicely on lead, and has a joyous personality. Chance is looking for his new forever home that he has never had the chance to have.” Meet Chance here.
