Duchess's Story

Meet Duchess!<br/><br/>Duchess is a sweet, affectionate, silly 6 year old girl who is always thrilled to see you when you get home, yet doesn't make a fuss when you leave.<br/><br/> She gets super excited to go on walks, but she also loves lounging around the house. She gets along with other dogs as long as they are "nice", as she can get intimated by rowdy dogs. She is very treat motivated and enjoys getting trained! She knows how to "sit" and she is currently working on her loose leash walking skills.<br/><br/>She was rescued from a San Jose shelter, where she was dropped off after being found tied to a fence. She may have had a difficult life before her rescue but Duchess is, at heart, a very affectionate dog. However, she is also an anxious dog and it takes time before she is comfortable with new people. While she is head over heels in love with her foster mom, she is, for unknown reasons, still very fearful of other members of the household even after several months of living with them.<br/><br/>We are hoping that Duchess will find a forever family who is patient and willing to invest the time into gaining her trust and ultimately reaping the benefits of her undying love!<br/><br/>Please familiarize yourself with our Adoption Process: https://angelsfurryfriends.org/adoption-process/<br/><br/>If interested to schedule an Appointment to meet, please fill out Adoption application: https://angelsfurryfriends.org/adoption-application-dogs/<br/><br/>We are a small, all Volunteer Foster Based Rescue Group, we do not have a Shelter Location. Our animals are available for meets By APPOINTMENTS ONLY at Foster Homes in Bay Area

Angel's Furry Friends's Adoption Policy
Thank you for you interest in our Animals. Adopting a Dog or Cat means a lot to the animal, that would otherwise have nothing. All of our animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, administered deworming medication and flea preventative. We do our best to have them spayed/neutered. In case if that was not possible for us, the Adopting agreement is contingent on the new owner completing Spay/Neuter the animal. Attending Dog Training with New dog is highly recommended. The rescued animals often times did not have a chance to develop obedience and proper behavior, as they were not exposed to formal training. It is highly recommended to attend basic training, it would benefit the new owner and their new dog relationship. If for some reason, after adoption, there is an issue, where the new animal is a match for you or your family: please inform us right away, we will take our animal back.
