Chance came to The Farm, a rescue sanctuary in Australia after he was moments from being put down in a kill shelter. The Pit Bull was a difficult dog, showing signs of anger and aggression. He lunged at other dogs and wasn’t trusted around humans. But, despite his behavior, one man wasn’t giving up on him, no matter what!

Meet Luke, a brilliant dog trainer with a heart of gold. No one could handle Chance on a lead but Luke. It seemed that Chance’s former owner encouraged his aggressive behavior. Once Chance did something positive, and Luke rewarded him for it, Chance was in awe. He LOVED Luke’s praise. Little by little, with Luke celebrating every command he followed, Chance was ready to meet the rest of the pack.
