Duke – Courtesy Listing

When Duke’s courtesy post first went up, we weren’t sure what the future would hold for him. We had one week to find him a new home. Thanks to the people on FaceBook and NextDoor, all the shares, kind words, and caring people who spread the word — in just four-days Duke has found his happily ever after!

He’ll soon be heading to a wonderful home on five acres, where he’ll have a cat and a Yorkie Poo as companions and two teenage boys to play with (one who has always dreamed of a Great Dane). His new mom works from home, so he’ll have all the love and attention he could want.

We may not know this family personally, but we are so deeply grateful to them for giving Duke a chance — and a forever home.

Duke is a 2½-year-old Great Dane mix in need of a new home. His current owner has been working since early 2024 to rehome him after conflicts developed between him and two resident Great Danes. Due to escalating fights, Duke now lives separately and requires a home without large dogs. He has done well with cats and with medium-sized dogs.

Details:

Age: 2½ years

Breed: Great Dane mix

Sex: Male

Location: Princeton, WV (owner willing to travel for placement)

House trained and not destructive

Gentle on leash

Good with cats and small/medium dogs

Loves toys, bones, and jelly donuts

Friendly and affectionate with people of all ages

Has not been crated in current home, but previously crate trained

Behavioral Notes:
Duke lived peacefully with two Great Danes for over a year before conflicts began as the younger dog matured. The dogs can no longer safely coexist. His owner believes he would thrive as an only dog or with small to medium sized canine companions, and with cats.

Duke is currently being cared for by his owner in Princeton, WV. She is willing to transport him a significant distance to a suitable home.
