Hi , I'm Duke and I'm a big boy. I have a huge head and weigh about 95 lbs right now. I'm
a bit underweight so I'll probably get to be over 100 lbs. My foster mom says that I'm
the size of a little pony.
I'm about a year old and am ALL puppy.
I have a VERY sweet temperament and have shown no aggression at all. I share my water bowl and just stick my big head in and drink while the other dogs are drinking. When I first got to my foster home, there were some 4 month old pups and they chased me around the house. I was afraid of them! My foster mom thought that was funny.
I'm very affectionate and love to sleep with my person. I take up half the bed.
I'm dog and people friendly. I haven''t been around cats so I can't tell you whether I'll try to eat them or not! But I'm a bit clueless and will just step on or step over anything in my way. It doesn't occur to me that stepping on one of the puppies might hurt them. So I might not be great living with small animals who can be smooshed.
I am VERY strong and need training. I
pull really hard on the leash.
I
know
how to sit and some basic commands but my
boundaries are not good. For example, sometime I just
jump
up and stand
on a table or desk. I am food motivated so I shouldn't be too hard to train.
Let me know if you would like to meet me. We are in Falls Church, VA and will be attending adoption events in N. Va. But we can also arrange a one on one meeting. Contact my foster mom at dmmarson@hotmail.com
Thanks.
Duke
