PUPDATE:
Dobby, now Duke was adopted then returned some time after due to a divorce. He is shy and timid but he warms up rather quickly. He will bark in fear but if talked to nice and calm he usually calms down. He was very fearful when he came back but he is overcoming his fears. But because of this we do not recommend a home with small children. We were also told he does not like cats but we have not witnessed any aggressive behavior around cats. Duke is very playful and loves to play catch and play with toys. He walks amazing on a leash and is very good in the play yards. He was living with a German Shepherd named Prince who is also available for adoption but Prince tends to hog the attention from Duke so they are no longer kenneled together so it gives Duke a chance to get one on one attention. We think a few visits with him would let him get comfortable and to trust someone new. He is not a bad dog at all and he is a young dog so he can learn to trust and over come his fears as he is starting to do with us. He needs a very loving understanding home. Maybe a single person who can devote their time to him. If you think you are that person, come on down and meet the big ol boy!

Dobby came to us as a transfer from an overcrowded Texas shelter. He's a little over 1 year old and such a sweet dog! He's underweight but we are working on getting him up to a good body condition. He doesn't seem to know basic cues, but he does walk on leash ok. He had a great playgroup with a female dog and it actually made him more lively and confident. We will post more as we get to know him better.

Dobby's adoption fee is $200 and includes neuter, current vaccines, microchip, free vet visit, 30 days free pet health insurance, and custom engraved ID tag.
