Pet of the Week Duchess
The Humane Society for Tacoma & Pierce County has showcased Duchess, an adorable 8-month-old Pit Bull Terrier mix, as this week's "Pet of the Week. " Duchess is described as affectionate and playful, believing she is "lap sized" and loving to cuddle with her human companions. She enjoys playing with stuffed toys and engaging in casual games of fetch, making her an ideal pet for families, particularly those with elementary school-aged children. Already spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, Duchess is ready to find her forever home. The article highlights the Humane Society's vital role in the community, where they successfully place over 6,000 pets each year and reunite more than 1,100 lost animals with their owners.
Additionally, the organization provides essential services, including spay/neuter programs, wellness clinics, and a pet food pantry to assist local pet owners. Duchess's story not only promotes pet adoption but also underscores the importance of community support in animal welfare.
