Duke

This is Duke, our adopted dog. Justin's dog, Oscar, died this summer. It was sad because Oscar was a good dog and was my running partner in Pine Valley. Lucky for us, Duke has been hanging out with us all summer long. Justin's cousin, Garrett, was Duke's original owner. Garrett (23)died a year ago tomorrow in a trucking accident. It was tragic, especially because Justin and Garrett had been so close. Having Duke around has been a nice way to keep Garrett in our memories and she has been a good little guard dog and running partner. We've been excited to see that Gracie likes Duke so much and she has actually learned how to say Duke's name. So here is Gracie with her dog "Duke".
