Right after Helene hit our area, a woman found a litter of puppies all alone in a ditch. How or why they ended up in the ditch is a mystery to the woman, but she knew that she couldn't't leave them there. After getting them to her home, she noticed that the smallest of the puppies, Chance, appeared to have been bitten by a larger dog. The woman asked for our help in caring for and placing the pups and we were more than glad to help.

After his wounds were treated by a vet, Chance was kept separate from his siblings until he healed and given extra TLC by the woman. During that time, Chance began to learn his house training and other "indoor" dog skills. He also loves to play catch and, according to his foster mom "...very sweet and just precious". No doubt with proper training and guidance, Chance will make a great companion.

Chance has had 2 of 3 first year "puppy vaccines, de-wormings and other such care. He should receive another vaccine on Nov. 22 to complete his regiment of first year vaccines. His adopter must agree to having Chance neutered once he reaches 6 months of age and provide verification of such to our rescue.
