We got Jackson in June of 1999 and he quickly became part of our family. He was so wonderful with our three boys and was especially patient with our youngest, very rough son. He loved to go for walks and he often went with "Mom" to take the brothers to school. We recently had to put him down on March 27, 2006 due to cancer and it was heartbreaking. I cried all week long. We miss him greatly and are so grateful for the years we had with him. Thank you Pat for what you do in finding these wonderful dogs great homes. Thanks, Julie
