Good-Bye to Jack


As most of you already know we recently had to get rid of our beloved Jack. Big Ike was allergic to him, so we finally broke down and listed him on KSL. He went quickly, but I think we found him a great new home. The couple that took him seemed to good to be true! They are going to spoil Jack rotten!

Here are some of our favorite pictures and memories of Jack:

This is the picture Garrett sent me from the pet store when he first spotted Jack. Garrett
wanted him then and there, but had to wait until I could come
meet him. When went to the pet store the next day (the day after we closed on the the house) the puppy that had been staying in the cage with Jack had been sold. He looked so depressed that his little friend was gone so naturally we had to get him. When they let him out he ran around the corner so fast he completely fell down and tripped over himself. Then he peed all over the place. This is a trait that Jack continued for some time when he was excited!


Since we had just closed on our first house we were in the process of moving, so we took Jack with us when we went to Marci's house to finish deep cleaning the basement and get the rest of our stuff moved. He was such a coward! Everything scared him. So the entire time we cleaned and packed he hid in the cabinet. He was always scared of everything including but not limited to other animals, particularly ones smaller than him, doors that blow open, loud noises, and kennels.

Jack was such a good dog! He loved wearing clothes and really loved eating people food, especially pizza and cheese. He trained really easily and became part of the family. We loved him so much. We will miss Jack very much, but hope that he is very happy in his new home!
