If ever a puppy deserved a happy ending, its Duke.

Duke is a gorgeous young German Shepherd mix who is about 5 months old and weighs 35 pounds. He's a little underweight right now, but with good food, love, and stability, he'll be thriving in no time.

Sadly, Duke has already experienced more heartbreak than any puppy should. He was adopted from our local animal shelter, but when the adopter's resident dog didn't accept him, Duke was given away. The second person then gave him away to someone else, and before long, this sweet puppy was found abandoned under a bridge. Thankfully, one of our rescue team members saw his story on Facebook and rushed to bring him to safety. The shelter was already over capacity and unable to take him back, so Duke is now safe with us.

Despite everything he's been through, Duke hasn't lost his sweet, loving personality. He's friendly with everyone he meets and is exactly what you'd expect from a 5-month-old puppy—playful, curious, affectionate, and eager to learn. He'll need continued training, plenty of exercise, and a family committed to helping him grow into the amazing dog we know he'll become.

What Duke needs most is stability. He's been passed from home to home far too many times and were determined that his next home will be his forever home. Please only apply if you're truly ready for the time, patience, and lifelong commitment that comes with raising a puppy.

Duke has so much love to give, and we know the perfect family is out there waiting for him.

If you think Duke could be the missing piece of your family, please submit an adoption application today and ask about this handsome boy. Let's make sure the next chapter of Dukes life is filled with the love and security he has always deserved.
