***Duck is in a foster home. To meet him please submit an application and a staff member will contact you to set up a time to meet him!***
Say hello to Duck! A certified good boy from the pond with the happiest waddle you`ll ever see. While genetics weren`t on his side with having severe hip dysplasia in both hips. He doesn`t let that stop him from being a goofy, happy, playful, lover boy. He would do well as a single duck while he learns to walk and run more like a dog and less like a mallard. Hydrotherapy sessions would do him wonders and he truly swims like duck so you`ll love to watch him paddle. Walks, hikes and swimming are all encouraged to help regain muscle in his legs as well as any other forms of physical therapy. He is a deserving pup and just needs the right person with the time and attention it takes to help this boy finally enjoy being a dog.
He can be a little protective with toys and food so some training would be beneficial for him. He likes his people and can enter your personal space so fast with more kisses than you`d expect. Duck can also be the biggest drama queen and will whine to you all about it.
His activity is somewhat limited in that he only has trouble pivoting on hardwood floors and will lay down when he`s had enough. He can run very well and goes up and down stairs easily but higher furniture is still a bit of a struggle. He has had a right FHO and will need to obtain more muscle in the right leg before receiving his left FHO.
If Duck sounds like the perfect pup for you, apply today!
Adoption fee is $250 + $30 microchip fee + tax
