Description:
ADOPTION FEE SPONSORED!!Our big man Duke has spent the last year with Barktown recovering from malnourishment and heartworms. He is now 120lbs, heartworm free and ready for his forever home! Duke is a sweet boy that doesn't know his size! He is working on manners, but needs someone who can physically handle him, and no small children due to his exuberance and size! We haven't really tested him with other dogs but he seems okay with at least female dogs. We can always work on introductions at meet and greets. Definitely no dogs under 40 lbs. Duke can also be an escape artist and a climber, so be mindful of that. Duke needs love, patience, guidance and training to be the best boy we know he can be. He is VERY lovable! Duke does come with FREE TRAINING with Rosie Dane Dog Training. All you have to do is devote the time to the 10 week class, we pay for it thanks to the Pedigree Foundation! If you would like to make Duke a part of your family, fill out an application at www.barktownrescue.org/adopt DUKE'S ADOPTION FEE IS $200 The shelter software system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of our dogs we are only guessing at the dog's predominant breed or breed mix. We strongly encourage you to select your new pet by looking at each dog's individual personality and pet qualities rather than relying on a breed label that is only our best guess. Our adoption fees vary from $150 and up. All of our dogs are up to date on vaccines, heart worm preventives, and flea/tick medication, and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Portions of your adoption fee also help care for the sick and injured animals that we take in. Thank you for supporting us and considering a rescue dog!
