    Our Jack is Gone.

    Our Jackie boy died this afternoon. We "rescued" him in 2003 when he was 5 years old. We had 7 great years with our gentle boy. We will miss him very much! I will write more later - I'm just too tired tonight.

    Bet those were the BEST years or him as well.

    RIP Jack, you were much loved and will be missed. Romp and play at the Bridge, good boy!

    Hugs to you and your family. I am very sorry for your loss.

    Oh no, I am so sorry.

    RIP Jack
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Rest in peace, gentleman Jack. I am sure the love and affection you experienced with your family outweighed any previous unhappiness. You have left big pawprints on many, many hearts.

    Jack was such a special dog. Who knows what he went through those first 5 or 6 years of his life, but we know it was tough...then he got rescued by the best parents ever. (And I know cause they are mine!) Then he got to live the life he deserved...after all, being An Airedale he was "King of th Terriers"

    When he was rescued, his teeth were worn to nubs and when he started having health problems 2 years ago, it was discovered he had buckshot in his leg.


    What a happy boy was. Loved to play tennis ball, but he favortie thing was just to be petted. He loved to have his ears rubbed and would insist that you did.

    Two years ago, his health started failing. X-rays showed his kidneys were full of masses. Maybe cancer, maybe not. He had a hard time with the anastesia, so we knew any long surgery was extra risky and it was decided we would rather have him with a good quality of life for whatver time was left. And boy did he show us, surprising the vets living over 2 more years! Sure, he wasn't always the most coordinatined...some days getting up and down was a challenge. He didn't always remeber which side of the doors he was on (in or out) before he pottied. But as long as he still got an ear rub and raw hide to chew on, he sure has heck wasn't going to give up the royal life he found!

    We may have only had 7 years with Jack, but he showed us all why animals are the best. So innocent and loving, despite everything he went through early on. Sleep well, boy. You've earned it.

    Oh no!!! Out of all the dogs at the dog park gatherings, Jack was my all time favorite. We had airedales when I was a kid, so Jack held a special place in my heart.

    I am so sorry for your loss.
