Birthday: August 10th 2007 Likes: When he is playing with Tyler (his hu-dad)! Pet-Peeves: He doesn't have any ... He is "smiling" all the time. Favorite Toy: A small orange squeaker ball ... However, it is not his humans favorite. Favorite Food: Anything grain-free ... Favorite Walk: Around our country acreage. Best Tricks: Sit-stay ... Because his eyes are begging for touch, treat or play. It is so charming that he obeys despite wanting to do something else! Arrival Story: Friends of our breed Goldens and my youngest son has long waited for a dog of his own. And I happened to visit my friend (without knowing about her expectant Golden Mom) the very day of Duke's birth! His mom and I "bonded" as she rested on the floor and gently stroked her as she was heavy with pups. Bio: Sadly, we had to say good-bye to our precious Duke on June 10, 2008 due to kidney failure. We are grateful for his company on his leg of our journey and we miss him terribly ... I've Been On Dogster Since:
