Patch Pets: Meet Duke

Come meet the Duke at the Animal Rescue League.

He's a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix who weighs in at about 65 pounds.

Duke arrived as a stray and is friendly and responsive to attention. He loves to play ball and is very affectionate. He is a happy, upbeat guy who will make a nice companion for someone.

Based on the Animal Rescue League’s observations, it seems he may be house-trained. He does pull some on leash and would no doubt benefit from some further obedience training.

For inquiries about Duke, please contact his volunteer friend Ilene at RossPitt@aol.com.

Come to the Animal Rescue League at 6620 Hamilton Ave. in East Liberty or call 412-661-6452 to meet any dozens of dogs and scores of cats. The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday through Friday 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and Saturday through Monday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
