Duke

My story

Meet Duke, (affectionately known as  Duke-enhimer),  a red Doberman with the soul of a gentle giant and the lifestyle of a retiree. This lovable big guy is as chill as they come: he refuses to rise before 10 a.m., takes his sweet time exploring new places, and would rather roll in the grass than go on a run. He’s got a goofy, clumsy charm and is wonderfully low-maintenance for a large dog. Duke is great with kids (they’re basically his emotional support team), shows a strong attachment to men, and is the definition of a classic Velcro Doberman. He gets along best with small dogs, and while he’s shown curiosity toward chickens and cats, he’s easily redirected and non-aggressive. Duke has great recall, walks well on leash and off, and is eager to please. He’s still polishing up on basic commands, but is incredibly willing to learn. Duke would thrive in a calm home with a yard and a family ready to love a big dog with an even bigger heart. No high energy required! If you’re looking for a loyal, lazy, kid-loving companion who barks to announce guests but greets them with a tail wag, Duke is your dream bestie in a house-horse body.  This fabulous foster is a Doberman Rescue Minnesota foster dog.
