My story

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

Meet Duke - Serious Face. Silly Soul. Tiny Bed Connoisseur.

This adventurous, lovable 1.5-year-old pup is always ready for the next escapade and is eager to be your shadow 24/7. Whatever you're doing, Duke wants to be part of it—curious, alert, and always hoping to lend a helping paw. He’s incredibly intelligent, quick to learn, and a joy to train (especially when snacks are involved—he lives for treats).

Duke is doing great with his potty training, though he does best with consistency and a routine. He’s highly food-motivated, making him both eager to please and fun to work with. Toys? He’s obsessed. Whether it’s a plushie to cuddle or a ball to carry around, Duke is happiest when there’s play involved. He’s an energetic guy who thrives with plenty of exercise and engagement—and after a good zoomie session, he’s all about the snuggles.

Now, don’t let his big, serious look fool you. Duke may be large and have a bit of a "tough guy" face, but underneath it all, he’s a total marshmallow. Gentle, goofy, and endlessly sweet, Duke has a heart as big as his paws. He gets along well with other dogs (slow intros are always best), loves people deeply, and rides like a champ in the car.

And then there are his quirks—those little things that make Duke unforgettable. His favorite place to nap? The smallest dog bed in the house. Despite his size, Duke will curl himself into a tiny ball just to fit. And if you're wondering how to help him wind down after playtime, just turn on some sports talk radio. In under a minute, he’ll be snoring in perfect sync with the broadcaster’s voice. No joke—try it.

Whether he’s shadowing your every move, making you laugh with his ridiculous sleeping positions, or curling up next to you for some well-earned rest, Duke is all-in. He’ll be your most loyal sidekick, your built-in adventure buddy, and the coziest couch companion you could ever ask for.

If you’re looking for a playful, quirky, and completely lovable companion, Duke might just be your perfect match.
