My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Note: This pet is in a foster home but still needs a forever family. To arrange a meeting, please call (510) 337-8565.

What is gray and white and bright yellow? Ducky the dog and his yellow rubber duck!

Ducky is not only a super cute mutt when hanging out with his namesake toy, this senior is sweet and gentle. He loves family time, napping, gnawing on bones, and couch potato-ing. He's the perfect rainy-day friend.

Ducky is looking for a low-key home, with adults who are around most of the time, and where he can be the only fur child. He's good on leash except for some pulling when he sees another dog. Short walks are great; long hikes are out due to his arthritis, which is under control with medication.

Ducky is currently being cared for in a foster home, but the family has another human on the way and will be too busy to care for Ducky much longer. So he is standing by to meet a forever family like yours by appointment.

Ducky is one of our long timers. He's been at our shelter for more than a year. Unfortunately, he doesn't do well in a kennel, so we're hoping his forever family comes along very soon. If you think you might be interested, please fill out an adoption form on our website.
