• Chance's Littermates
Nicknames: Chancey Bear, Woofus
Chance's consistency was amazing. He qualified for the obedience and agility AKC invitational. He placed in the top 25 all breed for OTCH points earned. Dee Dee would have shown him more, but family became her priority.
Chance came from a litter of six pups: five males and one female. He was the biggest in the litter. Dee Dee had no plans of keeping a pup from that litter, but there was something about Chance that would not allow her to let him go. While in the pen with the rest of the pups, Chance would cling to Dee Dee. If she were on the side of the pen opposite to him, he would sit and stare at her while the other pups would pace and whine. He was so cute and loving. Dee Dee did not have to pick Chance from the other puppies, Chance picked her (no need for temperament testing!)
Chance's love for life is unbelievable. He loves everyone, and does not have an aggressive bone in his body. He is known for his bear hugs, which he gave out often at shows. If Chance could talk he would say "What do you want to do now? I'll do anything. Come on, let's play. You want to just sit there? OK, let me put my head in your lap."
Chance's ability to draw people to him has intrigued Dee Dee over the years. Spectators would come from the other side of the ring to pet him. When Chance was out with Dee Dee at a show, he would pick a person and call them over to him by making eye contact. It is almost as though he says to people "Come on, I know you want to pet me, its OK." Chance's claim to fame was being asked to play "Shadow" in Homeward Bound 2, but Dee Dee couldn't let him go to Canada for the six months required for filming.
