About Duchess

Meet Duchess! This sweet 112-year-old Labrador Retriever mix is a compact 25 pounds of charm, resembling a miniature Lab due to her delightful size. Her journey began sadly when she was abandoned by the very person meant to care for her. Left in a high-kill shelter in the South, she faced an uncertain future. Thankfully, kind-hearted individuals stepped in to give her a second chance at happiness. Despite her rough start, Duchess remains incredibly affectionate and loving. She adores attention and is eager to share her love with a new family. Duchess gets along wonderfully with other dogs and can even be cat-tested if you wish. At 112 years young, there's still plenty of life and love in her to offer! If you appreciate Labs but prefer a smaller companion, Duchess may just be perfect for you. Duchess comes fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. Her adoption also includes one month of free pet insurance and a Fi Nano Mini GPS tracker with six months of tracking service. All she wants now is a cozy bed and a loving family to call her own. Her name might suggest royalty, but what she truly seeks is a place to belong. Could you be the one to give this little girl a happily ever after? Click apply to start the adoption process.
