About Chance
Meet Chance, an incredibly loving and loyal Shepherd x mastiff canine friend who has earned himself the name Second "Chance" - Chance landed his paws at PPI via a late night rescue where community members had reported a gentle dog wandering up and down a rural dirt road for days (perceived to be dumped) PPI vollies sprung into action and went and collected him , sadly nobody ever came forward for this beautiful boy , as his microchip wasn’t updated he was still labelled “Puppy 5” he was named chance - “second chance” -
Through his gentle spirit and eagerness to find a new, caring family. This big-hearted dog has a cuddly nature that will capture your affection from the very first meeting. Due to his past trauma of being abandoned Chance would suit a family who is home more often than not.
Chance aka Murph was adopted late 2024 but is being rehomed at no fault of his - it’s been described that he deserves someone that can give him what he needs. We asked his current family to provide 5 positive points about Murph/ Chance:
-He is a very happy boy, content to hang out in the yard with his favourite squeaky toy and show you how high he can throw it.
-Very good with people of all sizes. He captures everyone’s heart that he meets, including my niece and young kids in our street.
- Loves to be close to his humans. He will follow you through the house and keep you company while doing basic chores.
-A cuddly boy. He loves to sit back on his hind legs and cuddle with both his front paws.
-Responds well to training. Will sit, drop, wait, leave when it comes to food or his toy as a motivator (provided this is in a controlled environment away from distractions)
Chance is initially reserved/ shy but becomes adaptable and would thrive as an only dog or just as easily share his space with a submissive female dog. His experiences have only reinforced his loving nature and desire for companionship. While he may have had a tough beginning, he has boundless love to give and is waiting for an owner who can match his warmth and devotion.
If you're ready to give Chance the third chance he deserves, prepare to welcome a faithful friend into your home and heart. All it takes is opening your door and arms to him, and you will find a lifelong companion eager to accompany you on the beautiful journey ahead.
