Meet duke

Meet Duke (ACCT-A-246701), a bundle of joy who is ready to find his forever home!

Duke is a happy, playful, and incredibly loving companion. He’s the kind of guy who never meets a stranger—he’s friendly with everyone he encounters, including children, with whom he has lived harmoniously in the past. If you’re looking for a partner for outdoor adventures, Duke is your man. He loves to stay active and is a certified star at playing fetch; he’ll gladly zoom after a frisbee or ball and bring it right back to you!

Beyond his playful personality, Duke is a very smart boy. He already knows several commands, including sit, stay, lay down, come, and down. He is also crate trained and housebroken, making him a great fit for a home ready to welcome a well-mannered pup. Because of his high energy level and love for movement, Duke would thrive in a home with plenty of space for him to run and stretch his legs.

Whether he’s chasing a ball in the yard or curling up to show his affectionate side, Duke is sure to fill your home with laughter and love. Are you ready to make this friendly, fun-loving boy the newest member of your family? Come meet Duke today!
