This
is Duke. She is a one-year-old female - yes, she's a girl, don't
let the name fool you - Bloodhound. Duke is the most interesting dog I
have ever come across not only because of her great looks, but also
because of her quirky personality. Most people would think a Bloodhound
is a lazy, well manner dog, who never wakes up. Well this is almost
true! Duke loves to sleep (don't get me wrong) but when she is awake,
she is a handful. She is energetic in the most ungraceful sort of way.
She tromps through the yard like an elephant who has been injured, but
you can see in her eyes, she thinks she looks like a the most sleek,
swift creature ever put on this earth. She adores the cats and the
naked rat that keep her company. She is defiantly a mommy at heart!
Duke gets along great with most dogs and she is ecstatic about children.
The higher pitched the voice the happier Duke is. Though I have tried
very hard to train this dog, she is very stubborn. She knows some
tricks, but we really leave it up to her whether or not she would like
to do them. Usually food helps get the job done. When I take her
hiking, she leads the way. Never underestimated the power of the
Bloodhound's nose. Even though she is just a pup, she had found our
cats when they have escaped from the house on several occasions. Duke
is a joy to have in the family, despite her downfalls. We love her and
would not give her up for the world.
