You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Duke was found as a stray in Durham, NC. No one came forward to claim him so he was brought to the local shelter. He did not do well in the shelter so he was not put up for adoption and only available to rescues. When no rescues came forward to claim him, the shelter was without any options and planned to euthanize him. However, Duke had several guardian angels working for him. His first angel won a 48 hour reprieve to find a rescue. His second angel found a rescue to pull him. The rest, as they say, is history. Duke was pulled and has a new lease on life! He is a friendly fellow, but not much is yet known about him. We will update his bio as we learn more.
UPDATE
Hi, my name is Duke! I was without a home when a nice lady took me in. I was dropped of at the shelter in Durham NC where no owner came to claim me. I waited for a very long time but no one came and I got scared and wanted out, so they said I was “unadoptable” and put me on the “sleep” list. Then I prayed and Angels came for me! They found a rescue to help get me out and a nice foster mommy to take me on my Freedom Ride! I'm still very scared and I don't really remember a home. The Doggy Doctor says I'm very healthy but thin. I've just been so used to not knowing when I'll get food. I have a foster brother who is old and wise and teaching me how to be quiet and calm. I also have a foster sister that's almost one (close to my age)! We play all the time. She's trying to teach me what dog toys are and dog beds. I don't know if I had those before. The ball-my favorite thing ever!! Foster mommy and daddy say they will make sure I go to my new home with a bunch too! I like baths, and I'll even stand up on my back paws to help you. My foster daddy is the greatest, he keeps treats in his pocket! He's taught me stay, sit, no begging, come, down, and no. I'm working on the lay down..that one’s hard. I walk well on a leash and don't pull you! But I'm so excited to tell everyone my happy story that I forget to walk in a straight line. I can't wait to find my forever family! I love to snuggle up with you and a blanket and watch Westerns! That's why my foster mommy named me Duke! Please consider letting me continue my happy story with you, I'll be ready for adoption soon!
