About Duke
Duke is a goofy and affectionate boy who loves to be around people. He will happily sit in your lap and enjoys being part of everything happening around him. Though he may take a little time to warm up to new faces due to some initial stranger anxiety, once you're in the "Duke club," you’re a friend for life. Given his personality, a quiet home with fewer visitors would suit him best, and the staff at the Oshkosh Area Humane Society are ready to teach any adopter how to help him feel at ease with newcomers. Here are some key points about Duke: - He's 3 years old and weighs around 70 pounds. - Duke is treat motivated and eager to learn. - To make the best match, he is recommended for homes with teens and up due to his size and energy. - Duke knows commands like sit, down, and shake and responds well to corrections. - He’s not comfortable around dogs because he wasn’t properly socialized as a puppy. Ideally, he would be the only dog at home, and any dog introductions should be approached carefully with professional guidance. - His previous home wasn’t cat-friendly as he exhibited chasing behavior. - Duke is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. If you’re interested in bringing this loveable companion into your life, take the first step by filling out an adoption application at the Oshkosh Area Humane Society. This could be the start of something paw-some.
