Meet Luke “The Duke” ✨ If you’re looking for a dog who will make you laugh daily, love you deeply, and keep life fun and full, Luke “The Duke” is ready to claim his throne in your home. Luke, affectionately known as The Duke, is equal parts distinguished gentleman, goofball, athlete, and cuddle bug wrapped up in the most handsome, velvety-soft coat you’ve ever felt. This boy lives for playtime—toys are his love language. Whether it’s fetch, tug-of-war, or inventing his own hilarious games, Luke will keep you laughing with his signature moves: think leaps, spins, and full-on Tigger-style flips. A home with someone who enjoys interactive play (and has a decent throwing arm!) would be his dream come true. But behind the playful energy is a deeply sweet and sensitive soul. Luke forms strong bonds with his people and thrives on connection. Once he knows you, he’ll melt into your world—offering gentle eye contact, soft affection, and his adorable habit of “talking” with his paws to get your attention. His gorgeous amber-gold eyes are truly something special—wide, expressive, and full of love. He’s already had entropion surgery, so his eyes are healthy and comfortable for the long run. The Highlights: • Toy-obsessed (fetch champion + tug pro) • Hilarious, bouncy play style • Silky soft coat you’ll want to pet nonstop • Very affectionate once bonded • Communicative and expressive personality • House-trained + dog door pro Social Life: Luke does well with other dogs and enjoys having a playful companion. He’s generally friendly and appropriately submissive, and he truly loves to run and play with a buddy. His Ideal Home: Luke would do best in a home where he’s not left alone for long stretches. He loves being part of the action and close to his people, whether that’s playtime, relaxing, or just hanging out together. A home with another friendly dog or regular opportunities for social play would be a big plus for him. Luke is fostering in North County San Diego area.
