Meet duke

💙 Duke is waiting for his furever💙

Meet Duke. This incredibly sweet 3-year-old boy is mostly German Shepherd, with a little bit of something big mixed in! 🐾

When Duke came to JDR, he was extremely underweight and had no idea what life in a home was supposed to look like. He is still figuring things out, but he is adjusting beautifully... and he is eager to please, ready to learn through training.

His foster family has been working with him on basic commands, and his housebreaking is going well! He absolutely LOVES his people.... adults, kids, everyone! In fact, he loves them so much that being away from them is hard for him. His foster has been patiently working on his separation anxiety and helping him learn that his people will always come back.

Right now, Duke is recovering from his neuter surgery, so what he really needs is a patient home where he can decompress, recover, heal, and learn what it means to finally feel safe.... Physically AND mentally. ❤️

🏡 Duke's ideal home is one where someone is home most of the time. He thrives on companionship and wants nothing more than to be with his people.

Duke is:
✔️ 3 years old
✔️ Mostly German Shepherd
✔️ Neutered
✔️ Up to date on vaccines
✔️ All blood tests completed
✔️ Healthy
✔️ Learning basic commands
✔️ Has prior exposure to horses and dogs
✔️ Did well with dog meets (and may love a confident female doggy sibling!)
✔️ Absolutely wonderful with people!

What Duke needs most isn't perfection. He needs commitment, patience, stability, and someone who will give him the time he deserves.

He has already had so much change in his short life. He deserves a family who will give him the chance to finally settle in and understand that this time, he's home. 🥹❤️

If you're home often and are looking for an incredibly loving, devoted sweetheart to become your best friend, Duke may be your boy.

Interested in giving Duke the home he's been waiting for? Please apply today!
