Hi there, I'm Dutchess Butterball

I am a female, fawn Pit Bull Terrier mix. ***Staff thinks I will be ready by early to mid-September. My foster family says Duchess is my name which suits me well! I am a confident and smart little girl that is ready to learn everything that will give me success in life. I am mastering going potty outside, I am not perfect because I am still pretty young. I do run to the door when I hear ‘let’s go potty!’. I love my people, l am a cuddlier whenever there is a moment between playing with my brother and host dogs and of course sleeping. My foster mom thinks my puppy kisses are the best! I sleep well in my kennel at night however, in the am I want to hurry to go outside to potty and start the day eating, playing and my naps throughout the day. *** I am not currently at the shelter because I'm growing big and strong in a foster home! You can sign up to pre-adopt me by placing a $50 choice hold. This is a non-refundable fee that does not go towards my adoption fee, but it does give you the first opportunity to adopt me. Shelter staff will contact you when I’m ready to go home with my new family! To place a choice hold, you can either come into the shelter or call us at 719-473-1741 you may wait to speak with a customer service representative or leave a voicemail. Choice holds are placed on a first-come, first-serve basis and only one choice hold can be placed on an animal.Once I am old enough to go home, I will have to be adopted at the shelter without a visit. Unfortunately, we aren’t able to visit while I’m in the foster home as it’s a lot of stress on me to be transported back and forth to the shelter for visits, which makes me more susceptible to getting sick. We want to be healthy for our new life together!
