My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

What do Duke and a prickly pear have in common? Both may look intimidating on the outside but are sweet and soft on the inside!
Meet Duke, a one-year-old Pitbull/Terrier mix that is sure to win your heart! Unfortunately, Duke was surrendered by a family that did not have enough room to accommodate him. Duke is so ready to find his forever home! Duke is truly a beautiful dog with piercing eyes and a gorgeous coat. He has won over staff and volunteers not only with his looks, but also with his loving personality.

Although he may look tough, Duke is a total sweetheart. YAPS staff and Duke know that Pit Bulls may not always have the best reputation. But Duke is just a dog looking for a loving family that will welcome him as one of their own. He is extremely loyal to those he knows and gets so excited when he knows it's time to play! Duke has a lot of energy and loves his exercise. He does have a tendency to play rough and would benefit from a family that would be willing to help him with training. When shown affection, Duke's sweet side really comes to the surface as he soaks up the pets and love!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our animals can be viewed either on our website under the adopt a pet tab, in person at our facility located at 11937 13th Street in Yucaipa, or you can call us for more information. If you choose to come and visit, feel free to wander through the kennels and cattery. If you find an animal that you like, please come to the office for more information. After that you will have the opportunity to interact with the animal and learn more about its history and background. If after the meet and greet you decide that you would like to adopt the animal and our experience leads us to believe that it is a good fit, you can pay the adoption fee and begin life with your new best friend.

Go meet their pets

Our pets are available to be seen at our facility, Thursday through Saturday from 12 pm to 4 pm. We look forward to seeing you.
