Meet Duke

Duke’s an 80lb boy that is a little over half Siberian husky and Great Pyrenees and the rest are a bunch of different breeds. He is playful, super soft & snuggly, gentle giant of a teddy bear with a calm, but active demeanor.  Duke loves to give hugs and morning/night kisses, is fairly independent, keeps himself busy outside or at watch near a window — but finds you and gets “chatty” when he’s bored, ready for dinner or play time.  He does need at least an hour or two a day of active interaction — a long walk, tossing a ball/toys or a large dog sibling to playing with! He was rescued as he reached his “due out” date from a 6-month stay in an Utah shelter & has gained some much needed weight since. He’s kennel & house trained, knows basic commands like sit, shake, kisses and corrections, is cat & kid tested, gets along with other dogs well including little ones (his large stature may be intimidating at first but he’s respectful & nonreactive). Duke is probably 1 t o 2 years old.

Adoption Process
Our adoption process is first filling out a pre-adoption application. once we receive a background check, home check, and fence line check are done. Once that has been done then we contact you and talk about who your interested in and set up a meet and greet. All humans and other canines must meet. If the meet and greet go well and the potential adopters want to move forward to adoption trial they can. We do a mandatory two week trial. At the end of the trial should the potential adopters want to finalize then we proceed by the adoption agreement filled out, adoption fee paid, all medical records given and transfer the chip. We also have an adopters group that we love people to join so we can stay in touch with our furry friends and see their adventures.

Look for other dogs for adoption!
