Happy, Playful Dog Looking for a Home

Meet Duke, Cupcake, Bouzer and Douglas - this week's loveable dogs and cats looking for their forever home from the Humane Society of Forsyth County.

Duke is an English Pointer mix with a cute little overbite who has an estimated DOB of 12-9-10. He is a bouncing ball of joy. He's a good boy who would enjoy an active home. He likes long walks and chasing a soccer ball around the yard. He thinks kids are fun, but he might be too "bouncy" for younger children. Duke does well with other dogs but he can't resist chasing a cat, so it would be best if he were in a home without one.

Cupcake is a black and gray female who’s approximate DOB is 5-5-08. She is currently at the adoption center waiting for the forever home she deserves.

Bouzer is a male Rottweiler mix with an estimated DOB of 6-4-07. Bouzer is friendly and very affectionate...and loves to gives hugs! That's correct, he'll jump up and put his paws around you, waiting for you to reciprocate. This love bug seems to be house trained. He's past the mischievous stage yet still playful.

Douglas is a cute young medium hair black and white male born around 5-11-12. Currently he lives at the adoption center with lots of kitty roommates. Douglas loves being petted and gets along great with other cats too. He enjoys taking long naps after chasing his toy mice. He's a very sweet kitty who's been patiently waiting for a new home and would make a great addition to yours.
