If you're looking for a loyal little sidekick who enjoys life's simple pleasures, Ducky may be the perfect match. This adorable Yorkie is happiest when he's close to his person, whether that's relaxing at home, heading out for a neighborhood stroll, or simply keeping you company throughout the day.

Ducky is an easygoing boy who prefers a calm, predictable environment. While his foster dog siblings are busy playing, he's often content to sit back and observe. He loves going for walks and has the cutest habit of enthusiastically kicking up the grass after every potty break. He's potty trained, walks nicely on a leash, and does not require a fenced yard.

Ducky has done well living with other dogs, but he can become protective of his favorite person and has shown some resource-guarding behaviors. Because of this, he'll do best with an adopter who can recognize those moments, provide clear guidance, and is willing to continue working with positive reinforcement and, if needed, a professional trainer. He would be happiest in an adult home or one with older, dog-savvy children who can respect his space.

He's still building confidence with crate training and may need a little time to settle, but overall he's a wonderful companion with a gentle, devoted personality. Given a patient family and a peaceful home, Ducky will reward his people with loyalty, companionship, and plenty of happy walks together.

If you're looking for a sweet little shadow who wants nothing more than to be by your side, Ducky could be your perfect match.

Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter's expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.
