DUNCAN

3 years old, Terrier Mix

Duncan is a spirited terrier mix who takes his job of “terrier-ing” quite seriously. He is a quirky guy who thrives in a predictable routine with plenty of physical and mental outlets. Duncan loves to play with other dogs! He goes to daycare/training twice a week. He is a lot of terrier for cats, but a dog-savvy cat (who runs the show) would probably be fine. Respectful kids with dog experience in the pre-teen to teen years might a fit for Duncan.
