Meet Duke! Pitbull/Lab Mix

Introducing our next Bark Squad member: Duke!

Duke is a Pitbull/Lab Mix that has been coming to our daycare for TWO YEARS! He is a silly boy with a lovey side, who loves to play hard and love harder! We are always so happy to see Duke because he always makes us laugh! We are thrilled to have Duke as a part of our bark squad, He is here with us a few times a month and has quickly become a big part of our family here!

We asked Duke’s parents to answer some of our questions about him that everyone can read below. We’re so glad to learn more about this sweet pup and very thankful that his parents continue to choose us to look after him. We hope to have Duke around for many more years to come!

Q: Tell us Duke’s story! Where was he born and what made you fall in love with him?

A:  Duke was adopted in Georgia. I found him at a peach festival. He’s my $20 dollar junk yard dog! He was the only one sleeping and not barking or jumping around. He looked so exhausted. It was love at first sight!

Q: What breed is Duke? What is your favorite thing about the breed?

A: He is a Lab/ Pit Mix. He is high energy, but is also a big couch potato during the day. He has adapted to my sleep schedule for the most part.(I work nights) I love how loyal he is. He is also such a mama’s boy and cuddle bug!

Q: How did you come up with his name?

A: he just looked like a Duke. Strong and regal!

Q: What is Duke’s favorite thing to do?

A:  He loves to run and come to doggy daycare. He can entertain himself with a strong, well made toy for hours.

 

Q: Is there a silly or funny story about Duke that you would like to share?

A: Duke is part lab but HATES swimming however, he will stick his whole face under the water like a scuba diver to get a toy or rock off the pool steps. He splashes around like a spazz in the pool.
