Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Duke! 🐾
Duke is a strikingly handsome male Malinois mix with a heart full of love and an impressive eagerness to please. This sweet, intelligent boy thrives on companionship and having a purpose—he’s happiest when his mind and body are both engaged.
Now in foster care, Duke is truly shining and soaking up new skills! He’s been learning lots of fun and useful things like tug-of-war (one of his favorites!) and the command “give” to politely let go of toys. Duke is even exploring communication buttons and has learned to use them for things like “treat” and “scratches”—though he’ll happily admit he sometimes asks for treats a little too often. 😉
Duke does excellent with sit, wait, and polite door manners, and he’s currently mastering the “touch hand” command. He loves belly rubs, enjoys running, and is always ready for an active adventure. When he gets overly excited, Duke can be a bit mouthy, but he’s actively learning to redirect that energy from hands to toys and is making great progress.
He’s a rockstar for grooming—Duke does wonderfully for nail trims and genuinely enjoys being brushed. One thing to know about this big sweet baby? He’s a very sloppy drinker, and proud of it!
Duke has shown nothing but affection and good nature, and it’s clear that kennel life just wasn’t his style. He’s ready for a home that appreciates his intelligence, playful spirit, and loving personality. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s eager to learn, bond, and stay active by your side, Duke may be the perfect match.
Come meet Duke and see just how special he is! 🐶💙

“The Siskiyou Humane Society exists to improve the lives of companion animals by sheltering, rehabilitating, reducing pet overpopulation and finding permanent homes. We promote responsible pet ownership, kindness to animals and enhancement of human-animal relationships through education and outreach.”
Since its founding in 1968, the Siskiyou Humane Society Adoption Center in Mt. Shasta has provided rescue and refuge for hundreds of homeless cats and dogs every year. The shelter’s staff and volunteers take special pride in getting to know the animals as individuals. Because they are familiar with the personalities of the shelter cats and dogs, they can help potential adopters find the best matches for their families and lifestyles. From kittens and puppies to previously trained adults, all pets adopted from SHS are spayed and neutered, given permanent micro-chip identification, and adult dogs are assessed for behavior using a nationally known behavior evaluation.
Siskiyou Humane Society is a “no-kill” facility, animals aren’t euthanized because they’ve been in the shelter for too long, or to make room for more animals, but are cared for until they find new homes. Preventing pet over-population is a big part of the Society’s mission statement. The shelter provides information and referrals for low-income Spay/Neuter assistance programs in Siskiyou County. SHS also offers humane education presentations for schools, youth groups and service organizations with topics like dog-bite prevention and kindness to animals. To help owned pets stay in their homes, the shelter’s Behavior Team provides free consulting for common behavior problems, so that pet owners and pet can live together in peace.
As a private, 501(c)(3)non-profit animal welfare organization, the shelter receives no funding from government agencies or national humane organizations. Most of the funding comes from private donations and the sales at the Society’s two thrift stores.
