Born to rule the backyard kingdom, I’m Duke — a 1 year old, 56 pound Pit Bull Terrier with royal energy, a playful heart, and a whole lot of love to give. I’m house trained but need work on my crate and leash skills. I'm super smart, and always ready for my next adventure. I already know some impressive commands like sit, lay down, shake, crawl, and high energy is basically my middle name. If you’ve got a big yard, I’ll happily sprint, zoom, and play like it’s my full-time job… because honestly, I could run all day! I’m great with other dogs, cats, and kids, and I thrive with an active family who can keep up with my free-spirited personality. I’m curious, food-driven, and eager to learn — I just need someone with patience and maybe some obedience training skills to help me polish my royal manners. One quirky fact... I’m a little nervous on hard floors… but if treats are involved, I’ll absolutely brave the journey like a true duke. I also have some mild skin issues (flaky/oily) and take Omega-3 daily. If you’re looking for a high-energy, affectionate, loyal best friend who’s ready to rule your heart and your yard, I’m ready to take my place in your home. My adoption fee is $150 and includes my spay/neuter, vaccinations, wellness exam, heartworm test, and microchip!
