Story
A big snow storm was about to hit DC so I went to the shelter to see if I could foster a dog. I immediately saw Mona (that's the name I provided her they gave her Lasy) and fell in love. She is beyond sweet just wanting to kiss and cuddle with every person who she sees. Truly one of the most loving dogs I have ever met. It wasn't my intention to adopt but I just couldn't leave her in that shelter for one more day. I would 100% keep her but I was just offered a job that has long hours and I just feel it isn't right for me to leave her for so long. She would be a wonderful addition to any loving home.

We assure you- this Duck does not quack but instead gives pleading puppy dog eyes that will melt your heart! He is a great dog that deserves a wonderful life after being found as a stray in a dog crate. Poor Duck was rather unsure when he first arrived at the shelter, but he has bloomed into a fun fellow who loves to run and play and get oodles of love. He is also a dog that enjoys romping with other dogs too. Can you give this very sweet, fun pup the great home he wants? Meet Duck today!
