Duke

Duke - a big boy with a bigger heart

Hi, my name is Duke. I am 100 lbs, neutered, vaccinated and completely potty trained and crate trained (if you need me to be). I live alone with just my mom, and I tend to just hang out with her while she works from home. When I visit my family I play with the other small dogs, which I love to do. I tend to be weary of strangers and take a little while to warm up to them, but when I am comfortable, I am a big goofball. I am well behaved most of the time. I bark when there are visitors because I do like to protect my home, but I do respond well to training if you have the patience and time to give me. I just love to be loved, and I hope to find my safe forever home, so my mom can focus on her health.
