Duke is a 2-3 yr old, Bernese Mountain/Australian Shepherd mix who is looking for his forever home.  He has already been through quite a lot in the last 90 days. He was found abandoned in a campground, emaciated and digging for scraps to survive. A family with 6 kids and a cat took him home where he bonded, gained some weight, and did very well for 2 months until the landlord found out he was there and kicked him out.  He was then put in boarding before coming to the Tampa area where he is looking for his final home.  Duke needs someone to let him know everything is ok and that that he will not be failed again.  He needs someone who is experienced with handling big dogs and is structured so that he feels loved and safe again.  Duke is also available to foster through our Foster-to-Adopt program.   Adoption applications can be found on our website at 4luckydogs.org.
