His name is Duke, he's a 7 month old chocolate lab and around 45lbs and 19-20 inches. I've known him since he was a 14 week old pup at the daycare I work at. On saturday his owner came in and broke the news that he's looking for a new home. Just due to the usual reason, busy mom with overworked husband and two young children with busy lives. He does have a mild case of demodex mange (caught quite early, being treated) but otherwise is a happy, healthy boy. He's pretty lazy to what I'm used to (McGruff...) but I think he'll make a fantastic performance dog. He's handler orientated, maybe a bit too much, and is eager to learn. All the dogs here except for Kylie are very offended by his presence, but they'll get over it. He desperately want to make friends (he's the kind of dog that shoves his tongue down the throat of every dog.) and play but they're too defensive right now.
He's also very difficult to photograph since I can't seem to get more than 5ft away from him. Plus my skills as a photographer are poor. I'm also considering changing his name. I don't mind his name but I know a million Duke's... but he's been 'Duke' for as long as I've known him so I'm not sure. On to the photos!
Very tired from swimming in the river at the dog park today.
flashy box is boring. sigh.
That's it for now!
