Meet Zoey

We are waiving our fenced yard only requirement because of her 5 lb size. No fence required but excellent vet references are required. The best fit for her is to be with another dog that is mid age - boy or girl and small in size, not large as large dogs scare her.

Zoey is a great little girl of 5 lbs and is 2 1/2 years old. She is a Morkie and was sold by a breeder to a friend. We have been working with this breeder for over 5 years and she saw that the dog was not being well cared for and asked for it back. She noticed it wandering at large all the time and the coat was matted. They decided to return the dog to the professional breeder and she asked us to place Zoey. We have spayed Zoey and provided all her vaccinations and heart worm test. She is housebroken to a pee pad and does very well in her foster home. She has never lived with dogs and while she waited for a plane to come to us she was in a kennel situation with the breeder.
She is living with a 6 year old Shih Tzu female and likes her very much. In placing Zoey we have been on the fence if she needs one or not. She is so little a hawk or bird of prey will get her and she should be a leash. BUT - she loves to run.
She really loves to run in the fenced yard and has a blast and being a high energy terrier this is good for her. People without fenced yards must be walkers because this dog can never be off a leash. At this point if she were to get loose - she would run and take you all over the neighborhood. This dog is not for families that believe in the boundary training or live on 40 acres in the country. That would be a dangerous placement. Perhaps a condo or town home that is owned by the applicant as we can not adopt to people that rent. We do check house ownership deed databases..
If you are interested read the instructions below and follow them very carefully to take the next step.
Duffy's Friends matches dogs to families in the Rochester Syracuse and Buffalo area's. Because of our required home visit the area of Syracuse and Buffalo outlying areas may be tough on us.

The children must be 12 years old living in the home and a positive vet reference is required in your name of owning a dog prior or current. Finally, home ownership is a must and we will not consider renting or students situations.

Please visit our website for our application -duffysfriends.org and our adoption request is $350.00 for a dog that is completed with all medical.
