Mama Dukes

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Mama Dukes’ life story has that rare mix of heartbreak, resilience, and pure sweetness. Her story is one of survival. Meet Mama Dukes.<br/><br/>Mama Dukes is an estimated 13 year old American Bulldog mix (with possibly a hint of Boxer charm) whose spirit is as beautiful as her snowy white coat. After spending her entire life in an undersized outdoor kennel where she was used solely for breeding, Mama Dukes was finally rescued by local animal control and given her first real chance at love.<br/><br/>When she came to us, she was underweight, neglected, and in need of extensive medical care. She had multiple masses removed (thank goodness all benign), underwent two rounds of major dental surgery, and was finally spayed after a lifetime of over breeding. But even in her hardest moments, Mama Dukes has shown nothing but sweetness and gentleness. She greeted everyone with gentle eyes, a soft heart, an unfaltering spirit, and a willingness to trust despite everything she had endured.<br/><br/>Today, Mama Dukes is healthy, safe, and thriving in her foster home. She lives peacefully with several foster dog siblings and is wonderfully dog friendly. She’s fully housebroken, uses a doggy door like a pro, and has perfected the art of being the world’s most devoted couch companion and Olympic snuggler.<br/><br/>Because she lacked human companionship for so many years, Mama Dukes has become a true Velcro dog. She bonds deeply and wants to be near her people. She will do best in a home where she isn’t left alone for long hours. She does experience some separation anxiety when left in the car and can see her person walking away, but in the home, she settles beautifully with routine and reassurance.<br/><br/>Mama Dukes is gentle, loving, and endlessly grateful for every kindness shown to her. After a lifetime of hardship, she deserves a retirement filled with comfort, companionship, and the kind of love she was denied for far too long. We are searching for a very special home for this very special girl. Only the perfect match will do. A home where she will be cherished and cared for, for the rest of her days.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal shadow, a soft snuggler, devoted companion, and the<br/>sweetest soul you’ll ever meet, Mama Dukes is ready to finally be someone’s beloved and treasured family member.<br/><br/>NOTE: Dog Breed Information.
