Duke 69's Story

HOW TO ADOPT: The fastest way to start is to submit an adoption application directly (labs4rescue.com/adopt). Please use our official website rather than the Petfinder "Start your Inquiry" button.<br/><br/>Duke #69 is a handsome 7-year-old purebred yellow Labrador Retriever weighing in at 84 pounds. Through no fault of his own, Duke found himself surrendered to a local shelter when his family was moving to housing that did not allow dogs. This happy-go-lucky boy has a lot of love to give and is ready for a family to call his own! Duke gets along well with other dogs, is crate trained, rarely barks, and can be left home alone without a problem. He's an easygoing guy who would love nothing more than to settle into a loving home and enjoy the good life.<br/><br/>We would love to see Duke in a home with perhaps older children and, ideally, a fenced-in yard where he can stretch his legs, run, and play. Believe it or not, Duke has never really had the opportunity to enjoy being off leash, and we think he would absolutely love the freedom to explore and enjoy his own backyard!<br/><br/>At 7 years old, Duke still has plenty of life, love, and Labrador happiness to share. He's ready for his next chapter, and we hope it's with a family who will cherish him for the rest of his days.
