Tsunami is looking for a home where he can be the only pet, allowing him to build a strong bond with his new family and truly thrive. 

 Special Appeal: Chance Needs A Home!

CHANCE – A LITTLE BOY WITH AN EXTRAORDINARY SPIRIT & AN INCREDIBLE STORY! Chance has been through a frightening start, yet today he is a happy, affectionate little dog who has embraced every opportunity he’s been given. He loves people, enjoys canine company and has a particular talent for finding his way onto the sofa when a cuddle is available. We’ve completely fallen for him, and now we’re looking for someone equally special to become his forever family. QUICK FACTS Name: Chance DOB: Estimated 2022 Weight: Approximately 8kg Breed: Crossbreed Good with Dogs: Yes – lives happily with many dogs Children: Respectful older children Personality: Sweet, affectionate, gentle, determined and loving A SURVIVOR WHO HAS FOUND HIS JOY AGAIN Chance has a wonderfully affectionate personality and has settled into foster life remarkably well. He enjoys being part of a busy household with other dogs and is perfectly happy to seek out his favourite people when it’s time for some attention. He’s also discovered the joys of sofa cuddles, which he takes very seriously. There’s an endearing resilience about him. He simply gets on with enjoying his life. HIS STORY Chance was found near the fires, and we believe he had been hit by a car. When he was rescued, he was unable to use his legs. X-rays revealed nothing to explain his condition, so we gave him time to rest and regain his strength before introducing pool physiotherapy. The results have been incredibly encouraging. Chance is now in foster care with many other dogs and has settled in beautifully. He gets around well and continues to improve every day. He isn’t taking any medication and, although he has an unusual gait, his mobility is very good. We expect him to continue improving, but what matters most is how well he is enjoying his life now. WHY YOU’LL LOVE HIM * Exceptionally sweet nature * Loves cuddles and being close to people * Comfortable living with lots of other dogs * Very good mobility despite his unusual gait * Has made wonderful progress * Currently requires no medication * Adaptable and wonderfully settled in foster * A truly special companion with an enormous amount of love to give HIS IDEAL HOME Chance would suit: * Someone who is looking for a small, affectionate companion * A home where he can enjoy plenty of human interaction * A family with respectful older children * Owners who appreciate his history without allowing it to define him * A household with another suitable dog could suit him very well * People who will continue to give him the happy, active life he is enjoying Whilst Chance has an unusual gait, his mobility is very good and it doesn’t stop him doing the things he enjoys. His ideal family will simply appreciate him as an individual and give him the security of knowing he is home. HEALTH & ADOPTION DETAILS Chance has: * Been veterinary assessed * Had X-rays following his suspected accident * Received pool physiotherapy * Made significant progress with his mobility * Very good current mobility * No current medication * Full rescue backup for life * Home check required * Adoption fee and adoption contract apply His recovery will continue to be monitored, and prospective adopters will receive full information about his history and progress. CONTACT Email: homing@aadogrescue.org.uk Chance has fought hard to get where he is today. Now he’s looking for the person who will give him the one thing he hasn’t had yet—a forever home where he can simply be a much-loved little dog.
