Jac and I have been fortunate to have found a group of people and their dogs that meet at the park each day. Jac is the puppy of the group and even after a 7 mile run never stops playing.
Today we went on our second run together on the trails. As Jac has grown I have been wondering if he would make a good running partner and after two 7 mile runs in the hills he has exceeded my expectations. After we get off the pavement and into the hills I take off his leash and he runs side by side with me almost the entire time. I anticipate many more runs to come wiyth my new running buddy.
In August of 2007 a couple brought a dog into a PetSmart in Palmdale, CA and asked the store to take their puppy. They were told the dog would have to be taken to the animal shelter. A friend named Connie heard the exchange and upon leaving the store realized the couple had abandoned the dog in a shopping cart. Rather than see the dog go to the animal shelter Connie took the dog home and started looking for an owner for the orphaned dog. Connie contacted us and the rest is history. Thanks to a generous donation by little Jacob and Jennie from their piggy bank, we were able to get Jacpot his first batch of food and puppy shots to keep him from getting sick.
