Duke

This was Duke. He's unfortunately long gone, but he was a good dog. He was the first dog I got as an adult, but really he was my then girlfriend's, now wife's dog. Still, hopefully this clip shows that he loved me as well, at least when she wasn't around.

That face looks so soft omg. Sorry for your loss, but it’s also very clear he loved his time with you 🧡

He was a good dog.

I loved his huge (and yes, soft) head. I often told him so.

You know it.

My wife used to call him "Pook" or "Pork Chop" alongside his actual name.

He responded to any of them.

I know a dog named Duke (who honestly resembles your's a lot). He gets called "Dork" a lot and he loves it.

Lemmy.zip’s image proxy says

{"code":"validate-height","msg":"Too tall"}

That seems like a .zip issue, but if you prefer, here's the original imgur post I made many years ago:

Yeah it’s a Lemmy.zip image proxy issue. Seems to keep coming up. (Thought they had it fixed for a while.)

Now from the link in your comment I get this.

{"code":"download-file-error","msg":"Unable to download image, bad response 429 Too Many Requests"}

I'm out of ideas. It was just my cute expired dog.
