Biography: We adopted Jake from the county animal shelter in August 2006 when he was approximately 2 years old. He has been the best, most loyal companion anyone could ask for. His favorite things to do are following us around the house, going for a swim or a walk, fetching the tennis ball, sitting under the table while we are eating to wait for our son to drop something, waiting for a scoop of peanut butter when I make a PB&J for lunch, and (best of all) snuggling up when we need a friend. Jake has been through 3 levels of obedience training and has also earned his Canine Good Citizen certification. Most recently, he has earned the nickname of "Grumpy", as we recently added a 12-week old Australian Cattle Dog pup to our family. Jake has been a patient big brother, although he isn't happy when the pup wakes him up from a nap. As Jake matures even more, we hope to put him to work as a therapy dog and take him to nursing homes so that he can bring even a fraction of the happiness to others that he has brought us.
