Ducky (foster-to-adopt) Pit Bull Terrier Mix Rochester, NY

Meet DUCKY!

This girl has made such impressive strides in the past few months and has built terrific relationships with several new faces, with whom she allows all handling without issue. Tennis balls are her favorite pastime and she will play for hours with you ONLY IF you have a very secure fenced in yard as she is a remarkably good jumper. She can have some frustration on the leash, mainly in the presence of other new dogs, but would love a home with a nice yard where she gets her exercise there.

Ducky is very exuberant and athletic in her play style and would be best as the only dog in the home as she bonds to her people deeply and loves affection and companionship. As with many of our dogs and can be the nature of longer term kennel life, Ducky will need a relaxed person comfortable and patient for her to build a relationship together. She often chills out in the center quad of the kennel area with several of us, not all people that are familiar to her, and she has shown no concern but we still feel her scope of meeting new humans is small enough that we want her to be given time to meet anyone new so she can blossom and thrive to her best potential.

Since we want all of our placements to be the right match, Ducky is available for foster-to-adopt and we will provide weekly support from our behavior team who can help set up the acclimation into your home and help answer any questions you have that come up along the way.

**This dog is part of another wonderful partner rescue in NY, and is adoptable to a larger distance from us than normal - within a few hour distance from Rochester, NY, and between Rochester and NYC area and closer to the NY tri-state area. These dogs will make great additions to the perfect home and the two rescues are working together to help give them the very best shot. Teamwork at its best!**

We are still doing application processing virtually since COVID-19 and dog meets will be individually by appointment with ONLY APPROVED APPLICANTS. We are not a shelter and are completely foster-based, so there are NO DOGS KEPT AT THE SHOP.

PLEASE NOTE: If a dog is listed as Adoptable, he or she is still available at that time. Also, our adoption area is within a several hour radius of us in Rochester, NY (NOT including Canada - sorry!)
