Jessie is an 8 year old spayed Lab x puppy who was taken to the vet to be pts as her elderly owner had died and his wife couldn't manage her any longer due to ill health. The vet phoned me and asked for my help as she's such a lovely dog, naturally I went and got her straight away. Jessie suffered from a severe case of mastitis and in February had one side of her mamary glands removed, she had the other side removed 3 weeks ago - apart from that Jessie has a perfect clean bill of health. She was like a little barrel when she arrived but has lost 5 kilos and has far more energy as a consequence. Jessie doesn't have a mean streak in her body, gets on well with everyone - people, dogs and children. She can be very clingy and loves to sit at your feet and be close to you at all times. She's the very opposite of food agressive and loves you to stand close to her or hold her bowl, if you walk away she tends to follow and leave her food. Jessie's perfect home would be where she was the only dog (only because she likes all the attention), with someone who was at home all day and teenage children who would come home from school and have a game of football with her. Unfortunately, because Jessie is black, I can't get a decent photo of her showing how lovely she is, but photos don't show inner beauty anyway and Jessie has that in abundance.
UPDATE on JESSIE Sandie totally fell in love with Jessie, almost from day one, and always wanted what would be the very best for her but, when her journey to the UK was delayed, Sandie decided that it was meant to be that Jessie should keep her forever. UPDATE NOV 09 Jessica is a very happy and loving girl who enjoys an active life and lots of fun with her adopted brothers and sisters.
It's really comfortable using Barkley as a back rest!
