Let’s start out this Tuesday, that really feels like a Monday with some good news. Ducky is going to be adopted by his foster family. No surprises here. It’s incredibly difficult to bring a dog back from the brink of death and then let it go to another home. Ducky is exactly where he’s meant to be, and we couldn’t be happier. ...

This boy, with the stunning eyes is ready for a home of his own. Ducky came to us as a humane case in very poor shape. Shortly after entering his foster home he crashed and had to be rushed to MedVet. Two nights and a blood transfusion later he finally stabilized. This boy has put on weight and has really rebounded into a healthy, happy boy. His neuter is scheduled for later this month and he will be ready to go. Ducky is a mixed breed and only 10 months old. Ducky is good with dogs and cats. He keeps a clean crate and has pretty much mastered housebreaking. He’s a bit of a Houdini and has learned how to open the door and let himself outside.Can we talk about his eyes?!?! They are the most incredible eyes we’ve ever seen. Half blue, half hazel and he can look straight to your heart with them.If you’d like to make Ducky a member of your family, please click the link in the comments below to apply. Other pets in your home must be spay/neutered, current on vaccines, and on regular prevention. This is non negotiable. Please share for this most deserving boy! ...
