Duke

My story

Meet Duke! Duke is one of the sweetest and most affectionate dogs you'll meet. He is always up for some belly rubs and lots of snuggles. Duke arrived at the Trails Home Farm near the beginning of July from Puerto Rico, so we are still learning more about him as he settles into a new country! KNOWN WITH DOGS: When Duke first arrived he was a little nervous meeting new dogs, but has recently started coming out of his shell. He loves to run and play with our other young dogs but is also happy to coexist with our lazy seniors. KNOWN WITH CATS: We have not seen Duke with cats yet but let us know if you are interested and we can plan to test it! KNOWN WITH KIDS: We have not seen Duke with kids yet, but if you are interested, let us know and we will test it! MEDICAL: Duke is currently being treated for Heartworms and Homeward Trails is covering the cost of his treatment. KNOWN CUES: Duke knows Sit and Down, but is still working on Stay and Come, as well as his loose leash walking skills. KNOWN LIKES: Sunbathing, getting lots of snuggles and pets from his friends KNOWN DISLIKES: Dogs who won't listen when he needs space, loud and unexpected noises BACKGROUND: Duke came to Homeward Trails from a partner rescue in Puerto Rico in July of 2025 ___________________________________ If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail any questions to: trailshomefarm@homewardtrails.org PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE TO FIND THE ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ LOCATION: Trails Home Farm, Delaplane, VA ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Trails Home Farm Staff HOW TO MEET THIS ANIMAL: All dogs located at Trails Home Farm are in Delaplane, VA and require an appointment for approved applicants to have a meet and greet.
