My story

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

?? Meet Duke! ??

This handsome 7-month-old pup has been waiting patiently at the shelter for 4 long months for his forever family. ?? Duke was adopted once, but sadly returned just a couple of days later — through no fault of his own. His new family just wasn’t quite ready for the energy and excitement that comes with a puppy.

Duke has watched his sister find her forever home, and now it’s his turn. ?? He’s neutered, up to date on vaccines, and full of love to give. Duke’s playful spirit and sweet personality make him the perfect companion for someone ready to welcome a growing dog into their life.

Could Duke be the one waiting for you? ??
