Chance - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Memphis, Tennessee

Hey there, I'm Chance!

I'm 4 years old and I've got so much love to give! I love to explore around and sniff everything possible when outside, but will run to you if you call for me. I'm affectionate and will climb into your lap to give you kisses on your face.

I recently spent some time outside with staff, here's what they said about me:
"He would come when called. When called, he would play bow and run across the yard to me, then climb in my lap. He enjoyed receiving pets and affection, when I stopped petting him he would lean his body into me and lick me in the face. He was uninterested in playing with toys (tennis ball or squeaky toy), he would sniff them then walk away. He appeared more interested in human interaction (affection and play). He remained with loose body language during the entire time outside."

I'm heartworm negative and eager to find my forever home. Come meet me today! I'm ready to be your new best friend!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
