A3980764 Duke | German Shepherd

A3980764 Duke is a perfect 5-year-old black, brown and tan neutered male German Shepherd and Husky mix who came in to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center as an owner surrender (because they lost their home and could no longer care for him) on November 16th. Weighing 84 lbs, this big boy is a total love bug. He wants to put his head in your lap, get lots of belly rubs or just lie by your side. He’s a mellow, loving, big ol' teddy bear, so don’t be intimidated by his size. Duke walks well on leash and shows signs of housebreaking. He has long thick hair that is such a pleasure to pet. This guy is the perfect walking buddy who, after a nice walk, may indulge you by sitting by your legs as you watch tv
  (or even on the couch if you like your dogs right by your side when you are hanging out). He loves dog beds - he jumped right into one that was in our tent for video recording. Duke loves to get scratched behind his ears and get lots of belly rubs. He is terrific about just standing there while you brush him or talk to other people. Duke likes to snuggle and he is the perfect dog for that person or family that wants a big indoor dog that is super chill, easy to handle and a total lover.  He is also non-reactive when other dogs walk by him. Duke attached to his handler right way, which means he’ll bond with his family quickly. He likes to give a few kisses, but won’t overwhelm you. Nothing fazes this wonderful dog. If he isn’t already trained, it will be a breeze to do so. He is smart and attentive and we can’t tell you how much he is the perfect family dog.  Because of his size, the shelter is requiring that if there are children in the household, they be middle school-aged or older. They also recommend that any dogs already in the family be calm since he is so calm as well.

Our Mission:

United Hope for Animals is dedicated to reducing homelessness among companion animals through spay/neuter, shelter support, photography, video and networking of shelter animals in Southern California. It is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization working to end homelessness among companion animals by supporting shelter adoptions and spay/neuter programs. Through our Shelter Support Program, our volunteers photograph and video shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption significantly. Our volunteer Adoption Coordinators help facilitate adoptions of shelter pets. United Hope for Animals supports rescue, spay/neuter and networking of shelter pets to increase their chances of adoption. UHA is not a shelter, but supports shelters to help increase visibility of animals who might not otherwise be seen.
