Meet Duke, the delightful 10-week-old Lab Mix who’s ready to captivate hearts everywhere! 🐾 Weighing in at a snuggly 10 pounds (as of January 23), he's bound to grow into a robust 60-pound companion! You see, this little bundle of joy is not just another puppy; he’s a whole lot of happiness wrapped in fur, complete with a tail that wags like there’s no tomorrow! 🎉 Now, raising a puppy can be like riding a rollercoaster—thrilling, a bit dizzying, but oh-so rewarding! 🎢 Duke brings that special sparkle of joy and innocence into daily life, but let's be honest: he’ll also bring some delightful chaos! He needs someone with a sprinkle of experience, patience galore, and a lifestyle embracing activity! This little energy ball thrives on structure—so set your timers for 90 minutes of morning play and brain games throughout the day! Just imagine the laughter as he leaps into your daily adventures! 😂 Duke is learning to master his potty skills, just like a superhero in training! 🦸‍♂️ While he gets the hang of things, lots of consistency and love will be the secret ingredients to making him a bathroom champ! His playful curiosity means he can be a bit mouthy, as he explores the world and finds out what those funny things called 'hands' taste like! 🍗 Remember, patience is key! Duke is a social butterfly at heart! 🦋 While he’s best matched with kids aged 8 and up because of that rambunctious puppy energy, he has the potential to be a pal for playful pups and even respectful cats! Plus, training and socialization will transform him into a well-mannered companion who’s ready to meet the world! 👏 Separating from his new family might be hard for Duke; he might let out some puppy cries at first because, let’s face it, who wouldn’t miss all the cuddles? 🥺 Crate training is yet another adventure waiting for him and he’ll thrive with the right guidance! Duke is doing fabulously in health, already microchipped and vaccinated! 🎉 He's a survivor, saved from shelters in Tennessee, Los Angeles, and Puerto Rico by our dedicated group working tirelessly to find him a loving home here in the Northeast.
