Of course, when buying a dog, you cannot immediately consider the dog’s personality type.
Sure…you can draw conclusions based on their behavior, but it usually takes time to really understand them. However, in rare cases, puppies may quickly accept their new owner and make sure the owner is around.
Living with a dog like this is usually a lot of fun. Today we’re going to tell you about one such dog who was given a new opportunity and took advantage of it to live life to the fullest.
Duncan’s story

When Duncan’s owner lost his first dog to illness, he was very cautious about getting another dog and made a conscious decision not to.
But when she first meets Duncan at an orphanage in Chicago, he can see in his eyes that he wants to be with her. So she decided to adopt him and give him a chance. He ended up homeless and likely had no one else around, shelter officials said. However, there was a theory that the dog had an owner who abused and mistreated the dog, but no confirmation could be obtained.
After welcoming him home, she noticed that he had a very bright personality and was unlike anyone she had ever seen before.
For starters, she noticed that he would try to eat rain and snow. It was just really hilarious.
She told GeoBeats Animals: “When he first started, he would just hop up on his hind legs and kind of lunge and bite at things. But now he growls and barks.”
Among other things, he has a very funny way of drinking out of a water fountain. Duncan also displays a strong inability to catch treats thrown at him by his owners.
However, the one thing that is just really hilarious is when he decides to fight his own tail.
For some reason, he considers it an enemy and spends a long time trying to catch it, but always fails.
Duncan’s New Friend
Ever since moving into the Chicago suburbs, there has been plenty of construction going around, and Duncan’s owner noticed that he just really likes going around and saying hi to all of the workers.
Despite many of his hilarious habits, his owner noticed that he is very good at maintaining habits and always knows what to do. It made her see Duncan in a whole new light.
However, a lot of things changed when Duncan was introduced to his new friend. It was a cat named Coco.
The two get along great, and it surprised their owner as she noticed that Duncan did not like any other dog, but seemed to love cats.
Even when their previous cat passed away, he was seriously affected by this and would not get out of the bathtub for a while.
However, now that he has met Coco, everything has changed. The two are inseparable and will play all the time, but they never mess with each other’s toys.
Their owner said: “For a dog that doesn’t like dogs, the way he loves her is just beautiful.”
One of their favorite activities, however, is napping, and they always enjoy every minute of it.
Duncan has really changed everything for his owner. It really shows how much dogs can influence our lives and always remain a positive role model with their behavior.
