Jake and Dad One day in 1997, we noticed a strange face in the neighborhood. This cute hound mix sitting along the highway watching the cars go by like he was waiting for a ride. Needless to say, this highway has been the doom of many 4 legged creatures. So, we brought him into our home just until we could find his so called lost owners. We couldn't imagine such a beautiful, well behaved animal being discarded on purpose. We contacted the local humane society, posted (found dog) ads, and searched the neighborhood for his lost owners. He has been with us now for 4 years. My hubbie named him Jake (but maybe he should have named him "TERMITE" instead) He liked to chew anything made of wood. Furniture, steps, walls, etc.... Thank God he grew out of that stage. He has turned out to be one of the best dogs that I have ever known. |
