Arrival Story:
My dad passed away in June of 1987 - One day, after work I came home and my brother had brought a new dog home for my mom. My mom kept saying 'no way' I don't want a dog. When I looked over at the couch I knew that Jack was going to be my dog from now on.

Bio:
Jack passed away in February 2004 - he was 16 and 10 months. He was my companion through college, work, marriage and into my 30's - an extremely well adjusted (OK, so I never trained him) and well mannered friend - He had a great life, was great with children (though he didn't like other dogs that much - he just ignored them) and I'm proud that I had the opportunity to be part of it. He is dearly missed by everyone that ever got to interact with him. Matter of fact I'm almost amazed at how many adults and kids say 'he was the greatest dog'.
