Zeke the Wonder Dog

Officials in the MSU Athletic Department noticed Gary and Zeke's success and in 1977 invited them to perform during a Spartan football game.

Keze (pronounced "Kee-zee"), no relation to Zeke, was a chocolate Lab and the runt of her litter; her small size made her a more agile performer than her larger "brother".

In December 2005, Dexter was admitted to the MSU Small Animal Clinic for an intestinal obstruction caused by having eaten a substantial amount of carpet at his home.

[3] Zeke II returned to halftime action for the 2006 football season, but prior to the November 11 game against Minnesota he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right rear knee and was again admitted to the MSU Small Animal Clinic.

[2][7][8] Formerly known as Buckshot, this firecracker red English lab was a member of Zeke III's troupe of performing dogs but wasn't related to him.

Zeke IV has an extensive resume that includes appearances at NFL football games, MSU Alumni Association functions, festivals, parades and golf outings.
