Hi,
This is Jake's Mom. I just wanted to let everyone know how kind you are all were with your comments. I did not know that he had been chosen until a day later, so would have been quicker to post had I known.
He has truly been a great friend, and he has two other cohorts who are just as wonderful. As most have pointed out, adult dogs are excellent companions, and I am certain we will always go the adult dog route in the future!
Thanks again for all the support!
Micheale
and Jake
