Here's what the humans have to say about me:
DUKE***CONTACT SHELLY lovedogs.rescue@gmail.com***OUR "GROCERY STORE" DOG--DUKE'S STORY!! OUR DIRECTOR HAD JUST BEEN TO THE GROCERY STORE AND WAS WALKING BACK TO HER CAR WHEN SOMETHING MOVING CAUGHT HER EYE. THERE DARTING ALL AROUND THE GROCERY STORY PARKING LOT WAS A DOG, HE WAS LOOKING FOR ANY SCRAP OF FOOD HE COULD FIND, OBVIOUSLY LOST, TIRED AND SO HUNGRY. WELL, AS IT TURNS OUT THIS DAY WAS THE PUP'S LUCKY DAY, NEVER LET A RESCUE PERSON SEE A DOG IN NEED. OUR DIRECTOR IMMEDIATELY CALLED TO THE PUP, OPENED HER CAR DOOR AND NOT ONLY DID SHE GET EVERYTHING ON HER GROCERY LIST SHE ALSO GOT A HAPPY FRIENDLY DOG SHE NAMED DUKE. SHE STARTED THE CAR, DUKE PUT HIS HEAD OUT THE WINDOW DELIGHTING IN THE COOL BREEZE, EYES TWINKLING, AND HOME WITH OUR DIRECTOR HE WENT. DUKE IS A 1 1/2 YR. OLD, 50 LB., SHEPHERD AND WE FEEL JUDGING FROM HIS ADORABLE "CHUNK" OF A HEAD THERE JUST MIGHT BE A BIT OF BOXER IN DUKE'S FAMILY TREE. THIS PUP COULD BE SUMMED UP IN TWO WORDS "GREAT DOG" HE IS!!! IF YOU PUT TOGETHER A "WISH LIST" OF EVERY TRAIT YOU COULD EVER ASK FOR IN A TRUE COMPANION PUP CHANCES ARE IT WOULD BE DUKE. FIRST HIS COAT IS A MYRIAD OF COLOR, A DARK DARK FUDGE, HIGH GLOSS BLACK AND WOVEN THROUGHOUT A HINT OF SMOKEY SILVER. HIS CHISELED HEAD IS HIGHLIGHTED WITH PALE, PALE, HONEY COLORED EYES, THEY SEEM TO SPARKLE LIKE A MILLION CRYSTALS WHEN DUKE FIRST SEES YOU. DUKE IS ALSO A BEAUTIFULLY BUILT GUY WITH PERFECT BODY CONFIRMATION AND WELL BALANCED SYMMETRY. HE HAS A REGAL, PROUD, NOBLE CARRIAGE, BODY FIRMLY KNIT, STRONG WITHOUT BEING COURSE. DON'T BE FOOLED BY DUKE'S SERIOUS AND DIGNIFIED EXPRESSION, REMEMBER THIS PUP IS ALL ABOUT HAVING FUN. HE IS ONE "LIFE IS GOOD" GUY, JUST CALL HIS NAME AND HE TURNS INTO A REAL SOFTIE. HE IS ONE HAPPY, FUN "I LOVE LIFE" PUP. HE WILL PRANCE RIGHT OVER TO YOU, THOSE EYES TWINKLING, TAIL WAGGING, TURN THAT ADORABLE HEAD TO ONE SIDE AND GIVE YOU A LOOK THAT SEEMS TO BE SAYING "HI I'M DUKE WHERE'S THE BALL? WANNA PLAY?!!". DUKE IS A PUP THAT CAN ROMP AND PLAY WITH THE BEST OF THEM. IN FACT DUKE DOES THE CUTEST THING, HE WILL GRAB HIS LEAD AND PUSH IT IN YOU HAND AS IF HE'S TELLING YOU "LET'S GO FOR A WALK". IT IS SO ADORABLE!!! FROM THE MINUTE THOSE SPARKLING EYES POP OPEN IN THE MORNING TIL HE PLOPS ON HIS BIG, SOFT BED AT NIGHT HE IS ONE HAPPY FELLOW. HE HAS A GLOWING TEMPERAMENT AND DISPOSITION, LOVING AND SOOOOO MUCH FUN. OUR "MR. SOCIAL" ADORES EVERYONE HE MEETS, FROM CHILDREN TO SENIORS. DUKE NEVER MEETS A STRANGER. WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH DUKE JUST TAKE HIM ALONG. IF YOU HAD ERRANDS TO RUN AROUND TOWN TAKE DUKE ALONG AS WE KNOW NO ONE ENJOYS A CAR RIDE MORE THEN DUKE. YOU COULD TAKE THIS "GREAT DOG" ANYWHERE AND HE WOULD SHINE. IF YOUR DAY STARTED WITH A BRISK MORNING WALK OR JOG, DUKE WILL BEAT YOU TO THE DOOR, GIVING YOU HIS "COME ON LET'S GO" LOOK. HE IS IN GREAT SHAPE, A PUP WHO LOVES EXERCISE AND ONE WHO WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP, JUST HOPE YOUR IN AS GOOD OF SHAPE AS DUKE IS!!! IF DUKE'S FAMILY TOOK OFF TO A CABIN RETREAT IN THE MOUNTAINS BOY IS DUKE READY. HE WOULD DELIGHT IN NEW TRAILS TO EXPLORE, CHASING ANY STICK OR BALL YOU THREW HIM, JUST ENJOYING THE DAY, ENJOYING LIFE. THERE IS ANOTHER PART TO DUKE'S PACKAGE AND IT DOESN'T TAKE LONG FOR YOU TO FIGURE THIS OUT, DUKE IS SOOOO SMART!!!! HE IS AN EXTREMELY ALERT GUY, WATCHFUL OF HIS SURROUNDINGS. HE IS ALWAYS INTERESTED IN WHAT IS GOING ON, NEVER MISSING A THING AND FINDING ANYTHING NEW YOU INTRODUCE HIM TO EXCITING AND A CHALLENGE. HE IS EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT, RETAINS TRAINING AND DELIGHTS IN PLEASING THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN THE WORLD TO HIM--HIS FAMILY. AT DAYS END WHEN DUKE COMES INTO HIS HOME HE WILL FIND "HIS" SPOT, CURL UP AS CLOSE TO YOU AS HE CAN GET, NAP, CONTENT JUST BEING WITH YOU. HE IS THE ULTIMATE COMPANION. BETTER GET YOUR CHECK LIST FOR A "GREAT DOG" OUT AND YOU WILL SEE THAT DUKE HAS EVERY TRAIT ON YOUR LIST, FABULOUS TEMPERAMENT AND PERSONALITY, HAPPY, LOVING, PLAYFUL, SMART AND SOOOO MUCH FUN!!! DUKE IS A PUP WHO'S FIRST DAY WITH YOU YOU WOULD THINK HE HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF YOUR LIFE. DUKE ONLY HAS ONE REQUEST AND IT MEANS THE WORLD TO HIM, HE WANTS TO WAKE UP EVERY MORNING AND KNOW THAT HE BELONGS TO A FAMILY WHO LOVES HIM!!! OUR DIRECTOR MADE A PROMISE TO DUKE THE FIRST DAY SHE SAW HIM IN THE GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT SHE PROMISED THIS "GREAT DOG" A GREAT HOME"!!!!!
