Available Dogs
__________________________
Monkey is about 3 years old, unfortunately he was just returned to us after being in a home for 8 months. He needs a quiet home with not a lot of people coming in and out. He bonds with his people and is an absolute doll once he trusts you. He can be protective over his owners and his home. He absolutely loves other dogs, and knows all of his basic commands, along with some tricks! If you are interested in him please fill out the adoption application found on our website www.countryclubkennels.com or call the office 540-788-3559.

Charlie (left) and Pepper (right) are two lovely girls who were brought to The Chance Foundation after they were found guarding their deceased owner in his home by police. We believe they are seven year old lab mixes. Pepper can be very shy, especially with new people, but once she meets you she becomes a sweetheart. Charlie is still learning to be comfortable around other dogs, so for now we think she would do best in a home as a single dog or with her sister Pepper. Both girls love to get belly rubs and play with toys. They love to chase after balls, catch them in the air, and run around our big fields with each other. If interested, please call 540-788-3559.

This is Sam/Sammy! He’ll be 9 years old in July but you’d never know it because he’s still got so much spunk in him. He is SO very friendly. He loves children, he does well with other dogs after being acquainted, but doesn’t do well with cats. He loves to be outside where he can run. He knows how to sit and lay down on command and he loves to be right next to you to cuddle and follow you around to see what you’re up to. He’s incredibly sweet and would make a wonderful, devoted and loving companion. However, recently Sammy has undergone surgery for a torn cruciate ligament. He has a long road to recovery and would much prefer the time and attention that could be given by an adopter or foster. Feel free to call us at 540-788-3559 for more information or fill out our adoption application which can be found on our website at www.countryclubkennels.com.

Moose is a Beagle mix and is between 2-3. He's a great boy who has, unfortunately been brought back to us through no fault of his own. He is a fun-loving energetic pup, only 1 1/2 years. old He learns his commands quickly and is potty-trained, but may need an adopter who can help him with his house manners. Moose is hoping for a family who will understand how energetic he is and provide him with lots of opportunities for exercise. He has a gentle heart and will need a loving hand to continue his training. We are hoping to find Moose a home with a fenced yard (must be 5 feet tall or higher) with plenty of room for him to run, and an active family with lots of time to exercise him.

Daphne is a sweet hound about 5-6 years old. She longs for a life of soft beds and full bowls of food. Daphne would prefer to be a single dog or to live with other dogs that are more low key. Mostly, she just wants the attention of a loving owner and the comfort of a soft bed. She would make a great companion for someone who likes to take walks and then come home and snuggle on the couch. If interested in Daphne please call 540-788-3559 so we can tell you more about her.

Hi, I’m Taurus. I have been living here with The Chance Foundation for several years. I have many great friends here who love and adore me, but I am looking for a family who will share their comfortable home with me, and help me continue to grow as I continue my quest to be the BEST BOY EVER!
Since I arrived here, I have already learned so much. At first, I was not socialized, and now I am happy to say that I have more dog friends than I can count! I love meeting large dogs, small dogs, males and females, like to play and swim and eat treats, and love going on long walks with my human friends.
I am a very sweet boy who will quickly get into belly-rub position and sit at your feet. I haven’t always been so gentlemanly, so I am looking for a family who will help me continue my training and socialization. They will need to be assertive at times so that I don’t get too pushy, but this can be easily learned.
Please consider adding me to your family. I will be forever loyal!
Note from the Staff:
Taurus has limited vision, which means that consideration must be taken when approaching him so he doesn't startle. We would be happy to give you some tips on how to make this work for you.

Hello, I’m Pepé! As you can see, I am absolutely adorable, but before you start squealing, you should know that I am a very complicated man. I’ve been adopted and returned so many times I’ve lost count. I thought I found my special person, the one who could see through my naughty behavior and love me, but here I am at the shelter again. I know that I can be difficult, but put yourself in my paws. It’s heartbreaking to be given up on, so know I’m on the defensive, not giving away my love too quickly. I will put you through the ringer and make you work for it, but if you keep at it, I promise I will show you my sweet side which is buried deep inside.
Now for the good stuff – I love belly rubs, walks to the pond so I can dip my feet, playing with stuffed toys, treats and prancing around showing off how lovely my fur is! I am a perfect little size to fit into your home coming in at a whopping 10 pounds. I have been working very hard on my good behavior and making great progress with a few of my friends at work. I am house trained and crate trained and know “sit” and “lay down” flawlessly!
A message from the staff:
Pepé is a long term resident at The Chance Foundation and it will take the absolute right person for us to send him off into the world again. He is not afraid to bite and does not take corrections well. It will take the right person a significant amount of time to make a connection with Pepé. This will be a process that we would ask you to be fully committed to. Pepé would do best in an adult only household. He is ok with other dogs, but does misbehave from time to time. He will require a bit more caution with grooming, visiting the vet and being in public, so please consider carefully and make sure you are up for the challenge.

Our Resident Sanctuary Dogs
This cute little senior Maltese is expected to be about 12 years old. We are looking for an adopter or a foster for this special lady.
Betty White has kidney disease, which is currently being managed by a special diet. Betty White also has occasional dry eye, which requires drops and eye cleaning. She also needs regular grooming.
Betty White has become affectionately known as "Bossy Betty". Her tiny little frame holds a huge personality! She is a queen, and she knows it. She loves to cuddle and be affectionate. She will find a way to get your attention, and would be happiest as the only dog in the house, although she is fine with other dogs.
We love Betty White, but want her to be as happy as she can. She came to us after her dad got very ill and could no longer care for her. She knows how it feels to be loved and we would love for her to be doted on again as the apple of your eye. If you are interested in donating on her behalf, please call 540-788-3559.
Peaches and Chico
Chico and Peaches are two of our resident dogs at The Chance Foundation. After thorough vetting it has been realized that sweet, chubby 12 year old Chico has a tumor pushing up against his heart which in turn is pushing his esophagus out of it's normal position which results in a lot of coughing. Precious Peaches, the 12 year old Poodle who arrived to us with Chico just had a full dental and had to have 17 teeth removed! They will both be staying on with as very special, beloved sanctuary dogs as they are extremely bonded and Chico's prognosis is not very good. We would consider fostering them out as a pair to the perfect home. They will want for nothing and will be cherished every day of their lives no matter how long (or short) they are. If interested in fostering or donating on their behalf please call 540-788-3559.

Doodle is a senior daschund who has quite the personality! He is a spunky little guy who originally came to us with bladder stones that were very painful, so he would snap if you tried to pick him up. He got the surgery to remove the stones, but unfortunely he still had the reaction to snap when he is picked up. He then got adopted out but unfortunately due to his naughty behavoir was returned to us about a year later. He has so much character and really is a special boy! We are happy to have him here with us for the rest of his life but we hope to find him a forever home who understands him, and will love on him for the rest of his years! If you are interested please call 540-788-3559 or fill out our online application!

RIP Howard aka "Howie", 2004-2018
For 12 perfect years Howard was a member of our family. Howard was incredibly protective of his family and found himself in some trouble as a sassy 3 year old. We vowed as a team to keep Howie safe and the only way to do that was to keep him with his CCK&T Family.
The day he left us there was not a heart left unbroken among the staff and volunteers of the CCK family.
Howard lived like a king in our kennel and his incredible personality and ability to love will never be forgotten.
Howie meant so much to our team here, He was the best listener and many of us would use him as a shoulder to cry on. He was also incredibly protective of his family, we never felt unsafe with him around. But best of all Howie had a heart bigger than anyone could imagine. His love had no limits.
Our family lost not only our Shining Star, but our therapist, body guard, and our Best friend.
See you over the rainbow one day, until then.... We love you Howard.
