Hiya! I got my name because I'm such a fun, silly, playful pup. Perhaps they should have named me Lemon Meringue instead since I'm sweet as pie.
I love to cuddle and your lap is my chosen spot to snuggle up. Netflix movie marathon together on the couch? Yes, please! I'm always ready for an adventure too, being outside is my favorite. I might be small now, but when I grow up we can go on all the walks and hikes together. And those things they call patios with all the people eating and drinking, I bet I'll like going to those with you. I love everyone, big and small. Making new friends is the best!
I like my foster dog brother and sister so much. Do you have a dog that needs a friend? I bet we'd get along great! I promise to be their bestie forever.
I can't wait to find my family and start making memories together. Adopt me and let's get started!
If you are interested in adopting Duck Duck Goose, please send an email to jmeisen.fosters@gmail.com to arrange a virtual meet & greet with the pet's foster parent. You should receive a reply within 24-48 hours.
