Dukette's Story

Dukette is a 2-year-old tan Shepherd mix weighing about 55 pounds. She does best with potty training in a home environment, where she can follow a consistent routine and really shine.<br/><br/>She’s a bit of a night owl and prefers to eat in the evening. Dukette enjoys window watching and is naturally curious, always keeping an eye on the world around her. She isn’t a fan of crates or dog beds and instead prefers a quiet, tucked-away spot where she feels safe and comfortable.<br/><br/>Dukette can be cautious with new people, unfamiliar sounds, and busy environments. When she’s unsure, she’ll seek out a trusted person for reassurance. Once she feels secure, her affectionate side comes out—she loves attention and will gladly roll over for belly rubs.<br/><br/>She does well on car rides once she’s in, though she may need a little patience when it comes to getting inside the vehicle.<br/><br/>We are currently unsure how Dukette does with kids, cats, or other dogs. If you have a dog at home, a meet and greet will be required prior to adoption.<br/><br/>Since many of our adoptable dogs are in foster homes, appointments are highly recommended to ensure the animal you are interested in is currently at the shelter. Please call or e-mail the shelter to set up an appointment to meet and adopt!<br/><br/>Our adoption fees include the following: all of our dogs/puppies are current on vaccinations (DHPP and Rabies if over 3 months of age) at the point of adoption, dewormed, heartworm tested and current on preventative, microchipped, treated for fleas/ticks and are spayed or neutered. Our large dog adoption fee is generally $175 + tax. Our small dog and puppy adoption fee is generally $300+ tax. Adoption fees may vary in special circumstances. Due to space limitations, we do not hold dogs.<br/><br/>Because we are on a busy street, we require that all dogs leaving the shelter be in a carrier or on leash. All pets remain up for adoption until an approved application is processed and their adoption fee paid.
