jack nourished our heart and souls for 16 years.,Pam and I loved him dearly!

Nickname: jacky

My love,little Jacky,he was the runt of the litter of show dogs,Pam and I saw an ad and drove 40 miles 1 way on a Sunday,30 English springer spaniels greeted us at the driveway,One look at this lil babe and we knew he was the One.He cried himself to sleep in the backseat,I had an area all set for him with bed, blanket and toy rhino but he wail half the first night till I bring him in the bedroom with us,Our other 2 adult dogs took awhile to warm up to him but spunky jack was persistent.Jack was always curious about meeting people and dogs and many compliments were received -my,what a handsome boy!He was all about going for a walk at least once a day,it didn't matter whether it was the heat of a Arizona summer or the brutal cold of a Wisconsin winter.He would look at me and he seemed to say:Hey Dad, lets GO!He would get so excited , it sounded like he was trying to talk.We could see his brown stubby tail wiggle when he was walking outside.Jack had a good full life and liked to look out the window and go for a ride in the car especially with the fan or a/c full blast in his face,His droopy ears made us laugh,He started slowing down about 12 years old and at 14 I introduced him to Pro Plan Bright Mind for the next 2 years ,wet and dry food,after 5 weeks on this the dog who was having trouble standing and who would rather sleep then walk and who would rather watch our other dogs play became his old self playful, once again a shiny coat more alert eyes and now the 1st one to the dog when he heard me pick up the leash and collar,Our family is very glad we had so long with this magnifienct animal,he enjoyed good health all his years,we worried everyday as jack got older,he took a turn one day and passed that night,we will never-ever forget him,Thank you to the emercency vet clinic that made his last hours more comfortable.
