Duke

Male · Senior · 17 years

Someone came to Duke’s rescue before APAC. However, the situation didn’t work out… Duke did not like it one bit, and he made this known! Born in 2009, and already five years old by then, he bit and barked at everyone. The dog rescue who were looking after Duke called Lois for help, and she agreed she would take a look at him. What actually subsequently happened, is that someone drove by, threw him into her office, and left (true story)! Needless to say, that since Lois has been in his life, Duke doesn’t bite anyone anymore.

About Duke

What life with Duke looks like

Duke is an extra-large senior animal waiting at APAC Rescue Horses in Spain.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Duke far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Duke, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Duke?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. APAC Rescue Horses handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Duke on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Duke if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a animal can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask APAC Rescue Horses what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Duke already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a animal comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask APAC Rescue Horses directly what is included and what Duke still needs.
What happens if Duke isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with APAC Rescue Horses early rather than rehoming privately; they know Duke and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
