My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Duchess has done well meeting dogs of all sizes and lived with a small dog for a year. She gives very clear play signals and seems very respectful of other dogs. She also lived with a small child for a year and seems to do well with children. Her only vice is jumping and her previous owner would even encourage it on occasion, so that may be harder to train out of her, but she is a people pleaser so she is more than willing to learn. We are not sure that she would do well with cats despite not having done an official cat test. On her spay date, she had to share a van with several cats (everyone was crated including her) and all the meowing had her very excited in her crate. If you are looking for a big headed lovebug, Duchess is your lady.
