96 months!


Duke will turn 96 months old tomorrow. For you non math people that is 8 years old! Holy cow! It really doesn't seem that long ago that we got him as a puppy. We seriously love him as much now as we did before we had Sugie. I know people say that your feelings towards your first "fur" child change after you have kids but for me nothing has really changed. Duke is apart of our family and he is just as sweet as ever. Since Sugie gets all the attention I thought I would put what Duke is up to these days....


1) He weighs about 125 pounds, wears a slick black coat and no shoes everyday


2) He sleeps about 20 hours a day


3) His favorite place is to be near his humans on the couch


4) He still loves walks as much as he did when he was a puppy. If he sees you loading up Sugie in the stroller he knows its time to go.


5) He has been chasing bunnies in the backyard at the rent house


6) He is a good big brother and tolerates Sugie's abuse pretty well


7) I think he tolerates her abuse because he can be found around meal time near Sugie's highchair.


8) He does not speak any words but does understand many phrases.


9) He is still afraid of storms and climbed in bed in the middle of the night with me just this week.


10) He is the sweetest, best dog in the world and we love him so!


HAPPY 8TH BIRTHDAY DUKE THE DOG!
