About Duke
DUKE is a handsome kelpie mix youngster, born around December 2020. With his gorgeous amber eyes, unusual smoke-blue coat and white flash on his chest, he's quite the stunner.
Like all kelpies, Duke's super sweet, highly intelligent, energetic and very trainable. Duke already knows his basic commands, but he needs a little work on his recall, although this will improve as he settles into his new foster home and recognises his place in the pack.
As you can see from the photos, he loves a good stick, the bigger the better. He also loves balls and will run like the wind to fetch one.
He is good with children, though probably a little too exuberant for the under 8's, and he absolutely loves having a canine mate or two to play with. He is untested with cats.
Duke would make a great companion for an active person or couple, but would also be well suited to an active family with older children and at least one compatible dog. He needs to have space to run and play. Prior breed experience will be highly regarded. Secure fencing is essential.
If you are interested in meeting Duke and can offer him a suitable, safe and loving forever home, PLEASE COMPLETE THE ONLINE ADOPTION APPLICATION at https://southerndownsark.com.au/apply-to-adopt/ and one of our volunteers will be in touch.
His adoption fee is $595 and he has just been desexed, vaccinated and wormed. He is also microchipped.
Duke is available for interstate adoption and virtual meet and greets may be offered to approved applicants.
