So my mom went today and met Nancy and had a little chat with the Jackie Looster. My mom was really skeptical at first but all of the stuff she said was so right on! This is gist of what he had to say:

* Jack KNOWS that he's cute and he's full of himself.
* He doesn't really have his own place in the pack, he fluctuates from the 3rd spot to the last. He really, really, really wants to be the leader and thinks he will be very soon. I was talking about taking Jack with me when I move out and Nancy thought that would be a good idea but to keep him as an only child because he wants to be in charge and he'd make another dog miserable.
* The other Hoodlums don't really like Jack because he's way too into himself and he annoys them
* He likes agility, but it's not for him. He doesn't like being told what to do and would rather be the leader
* The reason he's so "unsual" around other dogs when he first meets them (the hair all stands up on his back and he's really pushy) is because he doesn't want the other dogs to think he's wimpy, he wants them to know that he's tough and in charge. But after the initial meeting he's fine with anybody. (this I do know)
* He's been peeing in the house occasionally (like the corners of the beds) and it's because he wants to be the leader.
-- And my favorite part..
* He loves the "blonde girl in the house" because she pampers him
- I'm surprised after hearing how into himself he actually is he actually thought to mention me!

The most amazing thing, however, is that my very very first dog, Simba, came through. We got him from a shelter 13 years ago and only had him for about a year before he ran off and we searched EVERYWHERE but never found him. He has passed on but wanted to let us know that he's okay.

So all in all, very cool!!
