My story

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

Don Dudley: Brave and Loyal with a Heart of Gold

Meet Don Dudley, a 75-pound bundle of loyalty, love, and boundless curiosity. Don is not only a handsome fella but is curious, athletic, and full of playful energy. He loves long walks, chasing balls, and exploring the world around him. While he can entertain himself when needed, he truly thrives when he’s by the side of his people, forming deep, loving bonds. Once he knows you, Don Dudley is the ultimate companion: affectionate, gentle, and fiercely loyal.

Don Dudley already knows commands like sit, down, stay, place, look, free, and walk, and he responds wonderfully to consistent guidance. He’s house-trained and would do best in a home with space to roam for a dog his size, so he can stretch his legs and enjoy his favorite activities to the fullest.

If you’re looking for a brave, playful, and loving companion who will stick by your side through thick and thin, Don Dudley is ready to be your forever sidekick—and maybe even your heart-stealer

If you’re looking for a smart, playful, and loving companion who will fill your home with joy, laughter, and unconditional love, Don Dudley is ready to be the sidekick you never knew you needed.
