Jack, Jacks, Jackie, Jack-Jack, JAAAHCKS… We miss you. I’m flooded with memories of you and man, were you a good dog. The most Loyal dog.. even at the chance to run, you stayed waiting patiently at the door. Now, you certainly had a few escaped adventures, but you always made it back smiling away like you just had the most epic time of your life! Spunky in your younger days too.. the way you’d take a stance in the back yard and just bark at what seemed like nothing, but with radar ears like that, you could’ve been barking at a buzzing fly 10 houses down… But that’s what made you, you! Loyal, playful, a little odd, and ears for days!
When I think of you, I envision you basking in the sun, eyes closed, panting slightly, and what always looked to me like a big ol’ ear to ear grin. Just soaking it all in, laying in the grass or in the cabin porch. That was your happy place and that’s how I will remember you.
A piece of our family is missing, but I know you are in a much happier and healthier place. You’re no longer suffering, in pain or confused and I know Sprout was there to greet you and show you the way. You were such a good boy and you will forever hold a very special place in our hearts. Enjoy the warmth of the sun every day, every last one of the unlimited treats, and bark at whatever you want until your hearts content.. until we meet again, little buddy.
