Duke - Black Labrador Retriever and Coonhound Dog for Adoption in Whitestown, Indiana

Meet Duke!
Duke is a 5-month-old sweetheart weighing in at 30 pounds. He is playful, loving, and full of personality, with an adorable little heart and plenty of puppy charm.
He is learning his basic commands, including sit, look at me, touch, stay, and settle. He is a pretty good listener and is making nice progress every day.
Duke is potty trained to go outside and is crate trained. He has a funny little bedtime routine, too! Before falling asleep, he likes to have a little conversation, usually making his adorable noises for about 2-5 minutes before settling down for the night.
Like a typical playful puppy, Duke is still working on his puppy nipping. Redirecting him to chew toys works well, so keeping toys close at hand helps him stay on track.
Duke is a silly, snuggly, curious, and affectionate little sweetheart. He is learning every day, has so much love to give, and is sure to bring plenty of laughter, joy, and sweetness to the right home.
