INTRODUCTION
A Dog Named Duke by
William D. Ellis is a story
based on the relationship of
a dog and his master. The
omnipresent narrator
describes how Duke, a
pincher Doberman, was
loved by his master and in
return offered his loyalty to
Chuck. The rare friendship
between Chuck and Duke is
beautifully narrated.

10. Chuck Hooper, a competitive young man, was a hard-
charging zone sales manager for a chemical company. One
autumn night, he was pulled out by a car and was taken to
a hospital with a subdural hemorrhage
in the motor section of the brain,
completely paralyzing his left side.
After months of sharing lonely
thoughts with himself at home,
Hooper and his wife Marcy decided to
bring their dog, Duke, a pincher
Doberman, back from kernel. When the dog was brought
back, he was a 23-kilo missile of joy. He hit his master in
happiness so hard that Chuck almost lost his balance.

11. Duke was no ordinary dog. He sensed the criticality of
Chuck's situation instantly. Day and night the dog and the
master stared at
each other giving way to
boredom. Finally, Duke
couldn't take it. He poked his
pointed nose under Hooper
elbow and lifted. He did not
listen to Chuck and poked his
master-arm at equal intervals. It happened so that one
evening Chuck good hand idly hooked the leash onto
Duke collar to hold him still. The whole incident was like a
lightening, Duke pranced and pulled Chuck to his feet.
With much effort he took a few steps and then collapsed
on his wheel chair. The Dog then knew what to do. He
started early next day. By two weeks they reached the
front porch.

12. By April the dog was pulling his master by the least on
the side-walk in the neighborhood. Everybody saw
the pattern of progress.
The next year in January,
Hooper made his
big move by walking 200 meters
without Duke to the local
branch office of his
company. The staff of the district office was amazed
by Hooper visit. He told the manager that he will be
making to the office one hour every day. It
presented problems back in the company.

13. When a man fights that hard for a comeback, who wants
to tell him that he cannot handle his old job? However,
Chuck already had his
next objective set: March 1, a
full day work. Hooper hit the
target and then he no more
took the physiotherapy suggested
by his doctor and completely
turned to Duke for his workouts. Sometimes after dark,
Chuck would trip and fall. Duke would stand still as a
post while his master struggled to get up. It was as
though the dog knew that his job was to get Chuck back
on his feet. Then on he worked full days for thirteen
months and was promoted to regional manager and he,
with Marcy and Duke, moved to a new house.

14. The fate then unleashed another mischief. It was October,
while a party was going on,
Duke was hit by a vehicle. They rushed
the dog to the hospital. Duke was
drugged and he made it until 11o' clock
the next morning. His injuries were too
severe. Now Chuck walked alone to the
office. It was only a few weeks ago,
worded as a special tribute
to Duke, and order came
through from Hooper
company: ..therefore, to advance our
objectives step by step,
Charles Hooper is appointed
“Assistant National Sales Manager.”
