About Luke

Meet Luke! This charming boy is part of our Gilmore Girls litter and is just about 9 months old. He was originally adopted at a young age but returned due to his fearfulness of other dogs and children. Luke has been working with a positive reinforcement trainer and needs an adopter who can continue building his confidence. He requires a home that is both pet-free and kid-free, ideally with a fenced yard, as he can be reactive on leash. Luke is already house trained and crate trained, making him a wonderful companion. His foster describes him as a true diamond in the rough—sensitive and a bit shy initially, but an eager learner ready to bloom in the right environment. When he's not snuggled up on the couch, he loves his outdoor adventures. If you think you can provide the loving, patient home Luke needs, please start the adoption process by filling out an application on our website. Remember, dogs are not gifts; it’s essential to discuss the responsibilities of pet ownership with your household before applying. This could be the start of something paw-some.
