From Duke's (formerly known as Koda) forever family...

I just thought I would send a quick note to let you know how Koda is adapting to his new home. We decided we would like to change his name to Duke and he quickly learned to respond to his new name. He and his new fur sister get along great. They play quietly with their toys indoors, but as soon as they are in the back yard all bets are off. Duke and Sadie (his sister) will run and chase each other for as long as they are outside.

For Mothers Day Duke decided it would be a good day to finish his shots at the vet. He has gained two pounds since his last trip to the vet. The vet says that there is no indication of his previous sickness, and he seems to be getting more energy every day. We think he is getting taller, but it is hard to tell after only one week.

Overall, Duke is turning into a sweet, mild mannered dog with a slight mischievous streak. It is fun to watch him sneak up on his sister when she is playing with the only toy he wants at the moment,(mostly because she has it). He crouches on the floor and slowly sneaks up and waits till Sadie is distracted and then pounces.

He has been a great joy for our family, and we look forward to many years with Duke.
