My Diary

Here comes Dukey cottontail hopping down the bunny trail and looking for an Easter basket to bounce into!
Lets recap.....Duke is 100% potty trained, he sits patiently at meal time waiting to be fed and has never growled or even lifted a lip when the other dogs have visited his eating area, poor Duke is always the one getting his treats and bones taken away from the others because he is so submissive, he goes up to bed when it is time and sleeps in his fluffy dog bed next to my 13 year old daughters bed, he loves running laps around the yard and wrestling or looking for sticks, but also loves laying under his big shady tree when he is tired out or even in a baby pool. Duke has a favorite spot on the couch and is all for big fluffy blankets and dog beds, he also loves his crate. If you love to go hiking Duke is the one for you because Duke LOVES hiking! He actually waits by the door bouncing when he knows we are going on one, especially when you take him on ones that cross creeks or waterfalls-he LOVES playing in the water! My wish for Duke is that he finds a family that loves him as much as we do! Another dog would be nice-especially a laid back one such as himself but not necessary. A fenced in yard would be a must so he can roam and run free, but not forget the importance of walks because Duke does enjoy them. I hope this gives you an idea of what a great dog, companion, friend Duke could be. I don't understand why he is still in rescue because to meet Duke is to love Duke, he has so much to offer, you couln't ask for anything better! If Duke is the one that captures your heart like he did ours put in an application, Duke will be waiting :-)

HoHoHo Duke Here and ready for the holidays!!
I have been thinking and my Christmas list consists of some nylabones, some rope toys, snuggly blankets (don't tell anyone...they are so soft and fuzzy I love them, but I am still a cool guy) and I also love stuffed animals that squeek, but they don't last long...I get too excited and tear them up..hehe! But most of all a family to share them all with!
I love to run and box and play.. I am housebroken, crate trained and LOVE my doggy bed! I sleep in bed at night with the teenage girl that lives here, she loves to snuggle, but sometimes I also sleep in my dog bed with my favorite blanky.
I get along with everyone and love other dogs too. I am laid back and love to watch tv but also run laps around the back yard, I love to see how fast I can go!
If you think I would make the perfect addition to your family let the nice people at BRBR know, I'll be waiting :-)
