About Dune

Dune is a friendly and lively young boy who thrives on interaction and play. He can get a little rowdy when excited, so he's seeking a home that will help him refine his manners. To support his training, his adoption includes a complimentary four-week training class, setting Dune up for success in his new environment. He may be better suited for homes with older children, and he would appreciate meeting all household members and resident dogs before finalizing the adoption. As a Diamond Dog, Dune is currently receiving extra training support from our dedicated staff and volunteers. He will be available for meet-and-greets by appointment or on a walk-in basis as time allows. If you're interested in giving Dune a loving home, please fill out an application mentioning him by name. Your next best friend is waiting for you!
