Duke

My story

Duke is a friendly Beagle who was found stray in Louisiana. He's about 1-2 years old and weighs about 32 lbs. Duke stayed with a foster for a few weeks in Louisiana before making his journey north. She reports that Duke is friendly and loves attention. He has been observed around kids, cats and her small dog and did fine. He was not destructive in her home, is not food aggressive. He walks well on a leash and is working on housebreaking. Duke loves attention and petting and can have some separation anxiety. He might feel a better sense of security with another dog in the home if being left alone. He tolerates the crate but may bark briefly. Duke won the hearts of his Louisiana fosters, and they would have kept him but could not have a second dog. Duke will be arriving in Massachusetts in late March.
