Derby

My story

Derby!    DOB: 5/2014    Weight: 50lbs   Oh Derby! I LOVE this little man! His owner recently had to move due to unfortunate circumstances and it left Derby homeless. Derby is a senior man who still has a lot of life left in him and is ready to find a person he can spend it with! He’s house trained. Good with dogs of all sizes and previously lived with a small dog. Ok with cats too! Derby enjoys eating food, going for walks, and being given loads of attention from his people. Owner said he has been ok around kids but keep in mind that he’s a big, stocky boy who can easily knock little kids over when excited. He did wonderful for his annual shots! Derby enjoys having his butt scratched, but he REALLY likes it when you sit there and smack his butt. His bark is also not much of a bark at times either. He got some yard time at one of our recent dog walks and had people thinking there was a dog fight going down. No, he was just screaming and complaining because he wasn’t getting the attention he thought he deserved. Derby will make an awesome dog for someone! Already becoming a shelter favorite.  His adoption fee is $100. That helps us to cover worming, vaccines, spay/neuter, heart worm test, and microchip. We offer a 2-3 week trial.
