Subject: Jake success story for publication if u wish
When our golden, Charlie, died suddenly, I told myself I could not
replace him for a long, long, time. My daughter, Lily, and I were so
in love with Charlie. He was so much more than a pet. He was family.
When Lily roamed around the house calling for Charlie (Careeeeee) I
decided it was time to get a new dog.
Jake was a foster dog, but when he bounded in through the back door, he
jumped into our hearts for good. Jake and Lily bonded immediately. I
was very concerned about him at first. He was so lethargic and hated
to go for walks or to play. After slowly weaning him off of the many
medications he was on, his real playful personality came shining
through!
