Duke
MEET DUKE
If you’re looking for love, I’m your boy! I’m a Staffy X, 12 months old but still very much a puppy.
Duke is a sensitive, affectionate, loving, gentle, friendly dog. He just wants to be with you & please you. He loves to play chase & tug with his soft toys & will easily let you catch him & win at tug.
He is really good with kids and loves playing with other dogs.
Duke can sit, stay & come (at home) but needs to learn recall better in the outside world. He loves to go to the dog park & beach so teaching him recall will be important.
When out walking he can get excited when passing other dogs & is learning how to ignore & walk by or meet & greet calmly.
Duke needs someone with time & patience to support him finding his secure base at home where he will follow your every move seeking your affection & reassurance.
When outside the gate he will need your patience & training to help him stay calm when passing other dogs & manage his exuberant puppy excitement. He is currently in training to heel & walk loose lead in order to help manage this. If not distracted by other dogs he he walks reasonably well on lead & loves to sniff & explore his environment.
Duke has a beautiful nature, has no aggressive tendencies (but will growl if you get too near when he is eating his favourite treat – a marrow bone) and is well behaved in the house. He can be left alone and will not chew, dig or take your things and will greet you as a long lost friend on return, even if you leave him for only a few minutes.
Duke is still very much a puppy and is looking for someone to lovingly and positively train him so he can mature into a confident, relaxed, adult dog.
Duke is desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, flea and worm treated, his adoption fee is $550 and he is located with his foster carer in Myrtle Bank.
