Chance is a friendly, social dog who gets along wonderfully with both people and other dogs. He would thrive in a home where he can spend plenty of time outdoors playing and exercising, but still come inside each night to a warm, comfortable bed. He deserves to be part of a family-not kept in a pen all day or night.
Chance is not an aggressive dog and isn't suited for guard work. While he may look similar to a Doberman, he's actually a German Pinscher mix and will stay on the smaller side, weighing no more than about 30 pounds when fully grown.
He's an affectionate, energetic companion who just needs a loving home that values both his need for activity and his sweet, gentle nature.
