Hello! My name is Dutchess and I am so thankful to the Bullock County Humane Society for taking me off of the streets. I was hurt very badly by the people that had me before I came here. I don’t care for children but I love to get snuggles and would protect any human that I feel comfortable with. I would be a great companion for a single lady or older gentleman. I get along with other dogs but I’m not fond of cats. I am not spayed but I will be prior to being adopted. I love to play, run, and get lots of snuggle time. I’m still young so I plan on being around for a long time.
