About Dune

Dune is a lively and friendly young dog eager for a home that can help refine his manners. He tends to get a bit excitable, so a space that allows for some structure will suit him well. Adoption includes a free four-week training class, setting him up for success and smoother interactions. He prefers to meet all household members, including resident dogs, before finalizing adoption. However, he cannot go home with cats and would thrive best in a family with older kids. As a Diamond Dog, Dune is currently receiving specialized training from staff and volunteers, showcasing his potential. If you think you can provide him the right environment, consider applying to adopt Dune today.
