My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Duchess and her brother were purchased as a puppy by an elderly woman, who unfortunately fell victim to dementia. The two siblings had no one to take care of and were often found roaming the streets in search of food.

Finally, the brother died. His frail body could not take it anymore. Duchess was left to fend for herself, until she found a loving foster home and SSS rescued her.

Duchess is 11 years old Afghan Hound, who is about 45 lb, current on her shots, heartworm negative and now being kept on heartworm and flea preventative. She is also spayed and microchipped.

It is evident that she was very well taken care of until her former owner's health started declining. She is very social and thrives on human attention.

She doesn’t jump up onto people. She loves to cuddle. She’s regal and she carries herself that way.

She is very loving, and considers herself a lap dog. She quietly lays next to or on her foster mom, while she works on her computer.

Despite being 11, she is very playful with her toddler human sister, and also loves to run around their yard.

Although she lives with dogs and cats in her current foster home, we prefer her going to a home without any other pet, to minimize her stress and get her the full attention and affection that she deserves

Duchess is not only potty trained but also crate trained, making her a well-behaved and low-maintenance companion. She is eager to please and is very obedient.

Duchess is being fostered in Texas, but can travel to any state, and even Canada for the right home.

More about this rescue

Our animal rescue section has been organized with very compassionate and dedicated volunteers whose only goal is to save a pet.
Each day hundreds of healthy, adoptable dogs and cats are euthanized in the kill-shelters of America. In Houston itself, we have the largest population of strays and our shelters are full with strays and abandoned animals including those surrendered by their owners because of reasons such as unwillingness to take care of them, pregnancy, divorce, loss of job, loss of home, prison intake, loss of compassion, empathy, you name it. Add to this, are abandoned pets on the side of the street by owners. Our mission is to give these puppies another chance at love and life. If every person will stop buying from breeders and adopt a shelter pet and spay and neuter them, we will be able to eradicate our euthanasia problem.
