Dugan the Dog has another birthday!

Dugan the dog plays with a toy his own size!


Well, he did it again! Dugan the Dog had another birthday on May 29 and is the ripe old age of 3 years. Life certainly has been interesting and entertaining with the Prince of Irish Wolfhounds, and he is truly a genteel fellow. Just last week he caught another cat in his backyard and had it trapped against a fence. After he had chased it to the fence he did not attack it or try to torment it, but only wanted to play. Another thing he does to show he is a Gentle Giant is to take food directly from your hand without trying to be greedy and swallowing or biting your hand. He will gingerly and delicately take the food from your fingers (although he will still slobber a little on you).

I am posting some fun pictures of Dugan playing with a favorite toy. Dugan really likes to play with balls so we got him a ball that is more his size: a 36 inch soccer ball! It is actually more like a huge beach ball with a loose covering over it that looks like a soccer ball. It does not stay inflated tight for too long and it takes a while to inflate even with a small air compressor, so we don’t play with it too often. But he really likes get rough with it!






Dugan always looks cute when his ears set up tall.
