Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello, I am a single male seeking my forever mate. My name is Sir Duke (of Peoria), my foster Mom gave me this name, you may call me Duke for short.
Honestly, I don't know what my name was when I was born, my former family left me and I had to fend for myself for months in a river wash. Whew! That was scary, I dug deep with courage until one day, this woman saw me and she was on a mission to get me rescued.
You see I am of royal descent, my lineage is that of courage, strength, intelligence, loyalty, security, and a keen sense of smell.
If you ask me, I am related to Rin Tin and Strongheart, my foster Mom rolls her eyes when I share this.
I am seeking a lifetime partner or family, you must be a leader, after all, I am, which is exactly why I need a leader who will not put up with my shenanigans occasionally.
Ladies, how many times have you heard from others, "oh I respect a strong, independent woman" only they don't mean it?
Well, I mean it. If you are a woman who is independent and doesn't put up with nonsense, I am your man!
My hobbies are and are not limited to hiking, playing fetch, seeking out new adventures (or scents), jogging, road trips (I love car rides!), striking a pose (my foster Mom taught me how to work the camera!), and more.
Get this, my forever mate will receive a $500 professional photoshoot if you live in Phoenix, AZ. Yeah, I have it like that, I know all the important people with perks.
I am a gentleman, you tell me to wait, I will; or, tell me that I have to sit and wait for my meal, I do.
I learned very quickly to let you go through the door first and I follow. I will walk right by you when we are out, I had to learn to trust and not pull ahead.
Oh yeah, I like my crate to be clean, all biz takes place outside.
My foster Mom tells everyone that I am wicked intelligent, a rapid learner, and I am eager to please. Did she not hear me that I come from royal descent? Of course, I am! ?
I need to be transparent, I am in therapy (training). No judgement! After all, don't we all have a dysfunction or two?
See, I am an only "child" (dog) and never did grasp the concept of "play nicely with other children"(dogs), so, I have entered therapy to learn to play nicely. As my foster Mom says, I am a work in progress.
I am trying hard, know that. Whew! Now that I got that off my paws...
So, whacha say? Wanna meet for coffee? Maybe this will lead to lunch, then dinner and breakfast for a lifetime.
I can't wait to meet you,
Sir Duke
Now, from me
Sir Duke is a highly intelligent, eager-to-please, neutered German Shepherd male. He is 3 years of age, DOB 4-12-21, and weighs approximately 80 pounds.
He is up-to-date with his vaccines and doesn't present with any known health issues.
He is active; loves to hike, play fetch, and car rides, and does rest nicely in his crate. If you put a water bucket down and give him a Chuck-It ball, he will play dunk and retrieve with it. Ha!
He doesn't display any recourse guarding with toys or food.
He is in training to learn basic commands, pull on the leash, and become less reactive to other dogs. At this time, until his reactiveness towards other dogs decreases, he would be better suited in a home where he is the only dog.
Before training, I was able to get him to stop pulling on the leash, he learned quickly that when he walked by me vs pulling out in front of me, it was so much more comfortable and fun.
He can be reserved when meeting new people, due to him being abandoned, he needs to relearn trust, just go slow and he will be fine.
To his future family, his adoption will come with a free $500 professional photoshoot (must reside within the PHX area), and a lifetime of free consultations from Farley's Green Paw Consulting (should the need ever arise).

More about this rescue
We are a new, small scale rescue. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit and are only volunteers. We began to see the huge numbers of dogs being abandoned and euthanized after our own husky was stolen during a break in to our home. We had to get more involved as it was a lifelong dream to be able to rescue animals. We have self funded the organization since the beginning, but really need donations as we have taken in some medical needs dogs that were due to be put down for manageable / treatable conditions. Our goal is to be able to match adopters with emotional support dogs, therapy dogs, or trainable service dogs, or just to complete a family by adding a furbaby. We ensure our dogs are UTD on shots, spay/neutered, chipped and trained in basic obedience. This ensures a greater chance of finding that forever home!
