About Duncan

Duncan is the gentle knight you wish would wander into your life—loyal, soulful, and a bit of a goof. He’s a one-and-a-half-year-old, 55-pound Catahoula mix with a soft spot for ladies and an Olympic-level fetch habit. Duncan drifted into the right backyard after a rough patch, found safety, and is now looking for a real home. He’s neutered, house-trained, and emotionally present—ready for commitment. You get a sweet, sensitive, sometimes-flashy boy who’s great with other dogs but won’t tolerate unneutered males. Cats are a hard no. He’s still learning the ropes with manners and building trust, especially around men, so patience and a gentle approach matter. Open your door to a companion who might seem like a Nicholas Sparks protagonist if that character giggled at squeaky toys. When Duncan loves, he loves deep. He’ll give you loyalty, laughs, and a presence you’ll feel in your bones. Click apply to start the adoption process.
