Description
Dog Breed: Golden Retriever (long coat). Adoption Fee: $300. Please review our Adoption Process before filling out an application. If you would like to try a Foster to Adopt trial, please fill out an Adoption Application. If you are only interested in temporarily Fostering one of our rescues, please fill out a Foster Application. Meet Duke! Duke is a sweet boy, who was adopted by a senior couple back in February 2024. Unfortunately, life circumstances changed and this handsome boy needs to come back to ARWOB. We would LOVE to find an adopter for Duke soon, so he can hopefully go from his current family to his new family and bypass the foster system. If you are interested in fostering Duke, we will only consider LONG TERM fosters, which would be someone who is willing to foster him until he is adopted. Otherwise, our priority is to find an adopter asap. If you are interested, please complete an online application right away at .arwob! Here is what Duke's dad has this to say about him as of 3/16/26: “Always a gentleman and very mellow at home, loves people, kids, and affection. Loves park, only time he gets really energetic and pulls on leash. Shy, cautious in new situations/environments, especially if area is noisy. He has not played with toys and does not retrieve but I know ARWOB had mentioned he did like to play with toys while with them. Duke is dog friendly and will only react if the other dog is reactive, he may also not be a fan of larger than him male dogs, not sure. He loves to be petted and given attention, if people don't give him attention he just ignores them. He is very good at coming when called. Responds to both English (Duke, come!) and Spanish (Duke, ben!) When left alone, stays in house and sleeps. At home he is quiet, mild, sleeps in his bed in my bedroom. Duke is mostly indoors, but loves to sun in backyard. He has never jumped fences, rarely barks.” If you would like to meet one of our animals, PLEASE fill out an adoption application.

Overview:
The Golden Retriever, a beloved breed originating from the Scottish Highlands in the mid-19th century, was developed for retrieving game from land and water. Physically, they are medium-sized dogs known for their striking golden-colored coats, ranging from cream to dark gold, which are dense and water-repellent. Their gentle eyes and friendly smiles are as characteristic as their feathered tails and strong, well-proportioned bodies. Temperamentally, Golden Retrievers are celebrated for their amiable, intelligent, and devoted nature, making them exceptionally patient and tolerant companions. This makes them superb family dogs, typically great with children and other pets, though their need for space and exercise means they are generally less suited for apartment living. While generally robust, they are prone to certain health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, certain cancers, and eye conditions, making regular veterinary check-ups crucial for their long-term well-being.
