![]() JAKE (was VIRGIL)
Mar 2018: I just wanted to let you know that Jake is doing amazing!! We've all fallen in love with him. I know he's more comfortable too because he's starting to explore more and pull stuff out of the garbage. He loves the recycling bin. He is walking on all the floors now - hard and linoleum. He goes up and down the wood stairs no problem. I still put him in his kennel at night but I can see that ending sooner than later. He loves to go up onto my daughter's bed to nap during the day. I still walk and/or run with him twice or more a day. He pulls a bit but not as bad as before. We bring him to the dog park but he doesn't want to play with other dogs. Lately, he has finally found a dog in the neighborhood that he plays with. We are slowly working on words of command and he's attended one obedience class so far. He knows sit, paw, stop and speak so far. I wish I knew more about his past and what happened to him. I keep having a feeling that someone still misses him. I am so glad we found him through your society! Here's some pics.

He is also as healthy as everand we still wonder how old he really is. Some people think he's a puppy, even if he's gotten a lot greyer in the face and on the paws. I bought him a nice winter coat this year as he really doesn't like to be cold.
