My Name:
Seems like my new Daddy likes to name his animals after musicians or songs. Since I am a Boxer, he named me Dupree after Champion Jack Dupree, a piano player from New Orleans who was a champion boxer with 107 fights. It also is a reference to the song "Dupree's Diamond Blues" by the Grateful Dead. Hope it like these guys...

What a whirlwind! First thing you know this man shows up at the shelter and they bring me inside. Looked nice enough. He sat down and I sat on him and licked his face. He looked at the lady who had been feeding me and said "I would at least like to foster him and then BAM! I'm in a car on a short trip, open a door and I am met by 2 other dogs...wait a minute, another shelter? NO! A Home!!!Oh Boy!!! In my excitement I marked on a bookcase and was promptly scolded and dragged outside. Note to self..mark OUTSIDE! He then takes me into the bathroom for, no he didn't. BATH?!?! Yes he did. I had no chance so I just pretended to enjoy it. Food, romping with my new Bro Duke then bedtime. In a real bed with Daddy! Select Comfort. Umm Daddy, I think my number is 35 so if you could adjust it a bit..No? You sure? OK, as long as you feed me and love me I'll adjust. Walks with both dogs, a ball to chase, biscuits and ICE CREAM!! Have I crossed the Rainbow Bridge? No, this is my forever home. How do I know. I over heard Daddy talk to the lady at the shelter yesterday . He said that "Butch is now Dupree and I am keeping him." Dupree.HMMMMM, Kinda hip. Kinda Nawlins. Between sleeping in a real bed and ice cream (vanilla) I can get use to this..

Thinking I'm the luckiest dog alive.

Dupree.
