| CHANCE |
 |
Chance is a 2 year old female border collie. She is on the smaller side, and she is traditionally marked black and white with a semi rough coat. Chance came to BCIN via Shanghai, China. You can read her full story here:
Chance is not a dog for some types of lifestyles. She is choosy about which dogs she likes. Chance has some dog-to-dog reactivity, more so on a leash rather than off leash. She will not make a good dog park dog or one that is off leash. She has been integrated with the resident pack of dogs in her foster home, however, she wants to be the alpha and will challenge if she is not watched. Chance really would prefer a home in which she is the only dog. Chance has quite the prey drive, so a home without cats, birds, and other pocket pets is a must. Chance does resource guard her food, therefore, she will not be placed in a home with small children.
Even with her negative traits, Chance is truly a lovely dog. Chance is very sweet natured and lively with a happy go lucky personality. This is a dog who wants to rock your world and be your BFF. She wants nothing more than to forge the closest of bonds with her person. Chance is so affectionate and loves all people when she meets them. Chance wants to please you and is very motivated, especially if there are treats involved. You will never meet a more obedient and loyal dog.
Chance has perfect house manners and is crate trained. She is housebroken. Chance rides really well in the car, and loves to ride shot gun next to you. She enjoys her walks and is good on the leash, but sometimes she pulls. Chance knows all of her basic obedience commands. She also loves to play nonstop ball and fetch, and will also self-entertain with toys.
Please don't apply for Chance just because she is pretty and cute. Chance will require a person who understands dog-to-dog reactivity and is willing to manage her condition. Chance has had a rough start and has had too many homes in her short life. BCIN is looking for a committed person who recognizes her potential and will give her the forever home she truly deserves. We have disclosed the good, bad, and the ugly about her so that you can decide if she is the right dog for your home environment.
If you are interested in meeting our dogs, please fill out an adoption application. We require a pre-approved application to be on file before any meet and greets are scheduled.
