DUCHESS - LOCATED IN ILLINOIS - DUTCH SHEPHERD / BELGIAN SHEPHERD MALINOIS / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Dutch Shepherd / Belgian Shepherd Malinois / Mixed. She’s young, gorgeous, athletic and a great snuggler. Duchess is an 18-month-old Dutch shepherd/Malinois cross who's quickly coming out of her shell in her foster home. Duchess is a late bloomer with loads of potential. With her foster, she’s starting basic obedience, gaining socialization skills, tracking scents and learning that it’s pretty fun being a dog out here. She's sweet, affectionate and a little timid with strangers. But once she knows she can trust you, she loves to engage. She is social with dogs with proper introductions. With small dogs, she is a little selective. No cats for this girl, as she's likely to pounce in play. Duchess will do best with an experienced and active owner who can help her continue building confidence through patient guidance, obedience training and environmental exposure. She would make a great running, hiking and walking partner. She has high toy drive and food drive. She would do best with a couple or a female-only household with older teens or no children. Duchess is very smart and has quickly blossomed since she's come into rescue. Her ideal forever home will keep building on her gains to help her become all the dog she can be.
