Duncan ~ WAIVED ADOPTION FEE!'s Story

Dog Name: Duncan <br/>Age: 2 <br/>Gender: Male <br/>Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier<br/>Weight: 70lbs<br/>Crate trained: Yes!<br/>Potty trained: Yes! <br/>Dog friendly: With proper introduction <br/>Cat friendly: Unknown, but most likely no<br/>Kid friendly: Big kids <br/>Vaccinated: Yes!<br/>Spayed/Neutered: Yes!<br/>Heartworm: Negative!<br/>Microchipped: Yes!<br/>Energy level: Medium - loves playing and walks but also is an expert snuggler! <br/><br/>Duncan is a playful, goofy boy who knows how cute he is with his big brown puppy dog eyes and isn't afraid to use that to his advantage! He's super smart and a fast learner, especially if treats are involved! He has mastered sit, down, wait, and shake paw. He loves going on walks or just sitting on the balcony and watching the world go by (albeit with a bit of barking). And did I mention toys? His favorite activity involves grabbing a toy and rolling around with it so it doesn't get away. He easily amuses himself!<br/><br/>Duncan is such a happy, playful pup who just wants all the love and belly rubs. His likes to snuggle right up to his foster mom and dad and demand that they pet him! What's even better is to cuddle with a toy because toys are the best! Nylabones, crinkly squeakers, balls, tugs, you name it and he loves it. Duncan also loves food! He eats his meals in record time, even Joey Chestnut would be impressed! And treats? All day every day, keep them coming! He is always ready to show off his skills on your command so he can get some treats, which he takes gently like a very good boy!<br/><br/>Like many young dogs, Duncan is still learning and figuring out the world. When he is excited he can be jumpy and bark but takes redirection well. He also has been working hard on his leash skills, and has made SO much progress! He's still reactive when he sees other dogs so he'll need someone who's patient and able to keep working with him. Also, someone forgot to tell this big boy that he's not a lap dog! <br/><br/>Duncan loves crate time and is great at being crated during the day while his foster mom and dad are working! He's also completely potty trained so you don't need to worry about those rugs or carpets and he's ready to snuggle next to you on the couch without concern! <br/><br/>Duncan is a very good boy who's had a hard life so far so he's still learning what it means to be a normal dog. To that end, he does best with routine and repetition. Duncan would thrive in a home that has someone willing to keep working with him on his socialization, manners, and leash skills. <br/><br/>If you're interested in meeting, Duncan, please fill out an application at the link below.<br/><br/>https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DHDN/Dog<br/><br/>Post Adoption Perks:<br/><br/>Tangible DHD Adoption Extras: All dogs come with their collar, leash, harness, and some transitional dog food (if adopter will be changing foods). <br/><br/>Medical DHD Adoption Extras: All adopted DHD dogs will receive a certificate for a free wellness visit (worth up to $250) at Naperville Animal Hospital.
