DUCKY's Story
OTHER PETS: Ducky can be pushy when meeting other dogs, and may be too much for some. She would likely do best with similarly-energetic dogs that can match her play style, or can be tolerant of her jumping. [Case-By-Case (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Ducky is a busy dog that's always on the lookout for something fun to do. She would do best with someone that has experience with energetic dogs and can be dedicated to helping her learn at her own pace with positive reinforcment. [Some Experience] KIDS: Because Ducky is so excitable, she can get a little jumpy sometimes, and may be a bit much for younger kids to handle. She would do best with older kids that can understand how to best interact with her and when to let her have her own space. [15+ (Must Meet First)] ACTIVITY LEVEL: Ducky is an excitable dog that will do best with various types of both mental and physical enrichment. She is truly eager to learn and is always happy to try out a new activity, but if she were left to her own devices she may go in search of her own fun. With further positive reinforcement training, she would make a great hiking companion, or dog sports prospect with vet approval. [Olympic Athlete] VETERINARY CARE: [Routine] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Ducky is still at the beginning of her positive training journey, and will do best learning with someone who can offer patience and gentle guidance while she adjusts. Positive reinforcement training will help Ducky not only learn her basic cues and skills, but also provide a good opportunity for her to bond with her new owner while building confidence. [Intense] GROOMING: Routine brushing will help to minimize shedding in the home. [Minimal]
