About Duffy

Duffy is looking for that special home to spend her final chapter. After being found in distress tucked away in bushes, this sweet soul yearns for the love she once knew. Estimated to be between 12 to 14 years old, she appears to be a Havanese and Standard Poodle mix, weighing around 12-13 lbs. Despite her past challenges, including mobility issues and dental concerns, Duffy shines with joy as she hops around and plays, often tossing toys in the air just to catch them herself. Mealtime is Duffy's favorite; she’s quite the food lover and will seek out anything that smells good, whether from the trash or your plate. She gets along well with other dogs but isn't particularly looking for a companion – she prefers to have her humans' full attention. Duffy enjoys activity but tires easily, needing plenty of naps throughout the day. While she has a heart murmur, she currently does not require medication. This lovely girl has so much personality to share, and all she desires is a warm and loving environment. If you're ready to give Duffy the care she has long deserved, submit an application. Located in South Lyon, MI, she is just waiting for the right person to make her days bright again.
