Say hello to Duke, a friendly and lovable fella' who is 4 years old and looking for loving! This super friendly boy is ready to make one lucky family very happy! Playful and full of life, he is a fantastic, fun loving fella' who is looking for a family to call his own.



We are not sure of his breed, but he has the face of a Collie or Flat Coated Retriever, the coat of a Newf and is the size of a Golden Retriever, around 80 lbs. He's a mystery and a great candidate for a DNA test! We are pretty sure there's Newf in this boy, but are not sure what else! Whatever his breed, he's a real sweetheart, cute as can be, and has a wonderful personality. What a fun boy!

He is a playful boy who loves to romp and play with toys, he has a great time tossing them about and prancing around. Duke has decent leash manners and is improving in the care of his foster family. He has a wagging tail and a smiling face for everyone he meets. He knows some basic commands and is crate trained. Duke wants nothing more than a family to call his own where he will get lots of loving. What a sweet boy!


Duke gets along with other dogs so could join a family with another well socialized four footed playmate although he would be happy as an only dog too. Duke wants to play with other dogs, but is lacking confidence and can be a bit fearful so he will benefit from further socialization and time with a handler that is dog savvy. He does guard his food from other dogs but responds well to correction. He has lots to learn, but seems eager to learn and responds well to direction.


Duke is neutered and UTD on vaccines. He is fearful when receiving veterinary care and will need some gentle handling in his adoptive home to help him work through these fears. Already he has made tremendous progress and his most recent vet visit was a huge success! Way to go Duke!
