I offered to foster a little blue Staffy for a local pitty rescue. I made it very clear that Chance was extremely aggressive in the past and described his temperament, energy level, etc precisely. They assured me that Cricket, the foster, had a personality that Chance would get along with. Needless to say, they were BFF's from the get go! Chance ambushed her a little bit sniffing at her girl-bits and trying to get her to play, but nothing more than a quick grumble on her part and Chance chilled out. Since then they've been chasing each other around and wrestling around the apartment. She's recovering from demodectic mange and I diagnosed her with hip dysplasia, but she's as sweet as can be and cute as a button.
And one of the Chance-man for good measure
