My name is
Duke!

Duke is a fun-loving thick guy with a tail like a whip!  Duke is very strong and has bursts of high energy during play.  He loves to chew, and tug-o-war is his favorite game!  He loves to chase (and destroy) tennis balls, and has a high drive to chase in general.  Duke does well with other friendly dogs, especially given the opportunity to do a slow introduction.  He has an intense energy while playing, but absolutely loves it.  For the right dog he would make a great companion.  However, Duke is also happy to be the only dog in a home.  He loves to share the bed with his people, and will always let you know if there is a stranger at the gate or someone at the door!  He's a great alert dog.  He enjoys sunbathing and snacks, and does very well when getting his nails dremmels and trimmed.  Duke has opened up to new people significantly since arriving with us, and is crate trained.  He responds well to correction from both humans and other dogs.  He does NOT do well with cats!  Duke is stronger than he thinks, and will sometimes run into things and trip overhimself.  It's funny most of the time, but he can be a bit of a bull in a china cabinet lol. Duke could use some work on leash training, but is house broken and doesn't get into many things he shouldn't as long as he has his toys to play with.  :).
