Meet Duke
Breed: Boxer
Barking from: Opunake, Taranaki
What's up dog?
Duke is a great front of house mascot. He meets and greets all our guests with a gentle sniff and then returns to his position on the steps behind the reception desk where he can keep an eye on the team to approve our workplace interactions. Sometimes, at the request of certain small people he will be happy to accommodate special viewings in the garden. He has also been mentioned in 1 or 2 Google reviews. He never barks or jumps with guests.
