He enjoys walks, playtime, and interactive toys. He is playful, energetic, and loves being included in family life. Once he warms up, he’s a loyal companion who loves cuddles and attention.<br/><br/>He would do best in a home that can offer patience, consistency, and opportunities for socialization, play, and mental stimulation. A home with another friendly dog would be ideal, and a family that enjoys an active lifestyle will help him thrive.<br/><br/>Health Note:<br/>Chance is currently heartworm positive, which is very treatable. Heartworm is transmitted by mosquito bites and is not contagious to other pets or people. Chance is already on his treatment plan, and the rescue will fully support his adopter through the remainder of the process. Dogs go on to live completely normal, happy lives after treatment—and Chance is expected to do just that!<br/><br/>Fostered in Norwich, ON
