She loves sunbathing and taking naps and when she is awake be ready for a clingy dog that will lay next to you and follow you around the house.

Story
Meet Duke! A two year old Mastiff mix that is looking for his forever family. In the home he is house broken, crate trained, and loves to be with his humans. As an XL breed dog, he could still use some reinforcement of basic manners. He's very strong on leash and tends to jump and get a little mouthy when he plays or gets excited. A family with large breed experience that is willing to invest some time and energy into basic training would be ideal. Another requirement would be no children under 10. Outside the home, Duke is a tad insecure and can be slightly reactive to new dogs. After a quick introduction, however, he does great (especially with female dogs). He can, however, tend to get too excited and possessive over toys so a family that can maintain boundaries in their home would be required. As for cats... this big boy LOVES them and would have no problem sharing his space with a dog savvy feline. If you are interested in Duke please fill out an adoption application at: https://www.dogsaredeservingrescue.com/adoptable-dogs/adoption-application/January 20, 2025, 1:25 pm

Story
Its truly amazing to see the progress Raphael has made with his trainer. When he first arrived, he had been through so much and was in such rough shape. Despite it all, he has remained incredibly sweet. Raphael is a truly wonderful dog with a big heart. He responds so well to commands, sitting obediently and taking treats gently. It's heart warming to witness Raphael's transformation and see him thriving! This lovable boy is more than ready to find his furever home.   If you are interested in adopting Raphael, please fill out an adoption application on our website!   https://www.dogsaredeservingrescue.com/.../adoption.../ November 5, 2024, 2:56 pm
