Adoptable Pet of the Week: Desdamona

Share This!

Desdamona at APS of Durham

Desdamona is a sweet, friendly girl who enjoys playing! She may need a little time to warm up to you, but give her some gentle affection and treats, and she’s sure to ask for more. She already knows sit and would love to learn other tricks, too! She enjoys chasing after a ball or a soft toy and would love to play in the backyard. Will you be her forever friend?

Desdamona is currently in foster care. To set up a virtual visit or to adopt, send adoption forms to adopt@apsofdurham.org. To view her webpage, visit apsofdurham.org/dogs/desdamona.

Adoption fees for dogs and puppies typically range from $125-$175. This includes a basic medical exam, spay or neuter surgery, microchip implantation, rabies and other vaccinations, intestinal parasite check, a heartworm test and deworming.

Thanks to our sponsors, new owners of each adopted featured pet will receive a complimentary first wellness visit from Park Veterinary Hospital & Urgent Care and a free full day of camp at Camp Bow Wow.
