Duke's Story
Fostered in Pensacola <br/>Fence required! <br/><br/>Meet Duke– Your Oversized Shadow with an Oversized Heart! <br/><br/>If you're looking for a gentle giant who will never leave your side and has enough love to fill the ocean, let us introduce you to Duke, a sweet, soulful Great Dane who's ready to be your devoted best friend. While slightly timid at first, after those first head scratches, he will be glued to your side.<br/><br/>Breed: Great Dane<br/>Age: 5<br/>Weight: 140-160 (but 100% of that is love!)<br/>Personality: Calm, clingy, and completely love-obsessed<br/><br/>If you search up "Velcro Dog" online, Duke's picture will show up. Whether you're cooking dinner, watching TV, or just walking from one room to another—expect this big baby to be right behind or beside you, leaning in for pets and gazing up at you with those giant, soulful eyes. <br/><br/>Despite his size, Duke has a calm and gentle demeanor. He's not here to bounce off the walls—they're here to lean against you, rest his GIANT head in your lap, and soak up every ounce of affection you have to offer. He would happily trade a yard full of toys for a couch, a blanket, and your hand gently scratching their ears. He shows no interest in reactive dogs by the fence or even rowdy play with other dogs. <br/><br/>What Duke Needs:<br/>A home that embraces couch cuddles and constant companionship<br/><br/>Someone who appreciates a dog who follows them like a shadow<br/><br/>Does well with all size dogs as long as there is a slow introduction. However, a dog companion is not a necessity for Duke, as long as he has his person!<br/><br/>Kids? Do they like to pet and give scratches? That is all he asks for! <br/><br/>Did we mention lots of love? Seriously, so much love!<br/><br/>It has been said that in his past he could be an escape artist, but with his foster family he has shown no interest in leaving foster mom or dad's eyesight. <br/><br/>Training: with Duke's timid and low energy body, leash walks are a breeze. Next to no correction is needed. His foster family is working on Sit and Down which he is slowly picking up. If he is doing something you do not want, a quick, but stern, NO is enough to deter him from it. Praise for sitting is his favorite part, although treats are appreciated and taken gently!<br/><br/>Kennel training: His foster family has been kenneling when not home and he does well, although he is hesitant to get in the kennel he loves the treat rewards that come with the kennel. His foster family has not left him out of the kennel while someone is not home. <br/><br/>Whether you're having a great day or a tough one, Duke will be right there—calm, loyal, and quietly reminding you that you’re their whole world.<br/><br/>If you're ready to welcome an affectionate, low-energy snuggle buddy into your life, Duke is ready to fill your home (and heart) with unconditional love.<br/><br/>Duke is neutered, fully vaccinated, and chipped. His adoption fee is $350.<br/><br/>To read over the adoption requirements before applying to adopt Duke, please go to www.nwflgdr.com/adopt.<br/><br/>Please note: NWFLGDR does not transport. All approved adopters are required to pick up the dog in person from his or her foster home.
