Duke

American Pit Bull Terrier

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Duke had a bit of a rough start to life. We aren’t sure the amount of trauma he experienced but we know he is resilient and has a bright future with the right person/family. Dukes past has shown itself with some territorial issues with our other animals which is the reason behind our decision to re-home. He would do best in a home with no other pets that he has to share space with. He is house and kennel trained and a very smart little guy that is pure muscle. He loves playing fetch, tug, and has become quite the water dog. He would make a great working dog as he strives to please when he has direction and structure. He truly is a very sweet dog full of character and we are sure he will thrive with the right person. (We think he would be perfect for a single, adventure seeking individual that needs a loyal, cuddly friend to keep them busy!)
