DUKE
Duke is a 3 year old male Rhodesian Ridgeback/Doberman. He is so HANDSOME!
He is THE sweetest boy. He is very affectionate and loves to get hugs and kiss. He is starting to show us his playful side, he will chase a ball when thrown but so far has not brought it back(so funny)
He gets the zoomies when he is out in the big yard and it’s the cutest thing seeing his pure joy of running free. Duke would do best with a confident owner. We recommend you research his breed. He is intelligent, strong willed, affectionate, loyal, and bonds strongly with his owner. He is a bit reserved when he first meets a new person but only takes a few minutes to open up.
He is dog selective so we recommend slow introductions to any new dog. He will also need a home with no small animals as he is a big boy and will be too much for small animals. He is non destructive and will lay on his elevated bed, chew on his toys and wait patiently for his time outside to play.
If interested in Duke fill out an application and email to ocappaws@gmail.com
