Sunday… um… DOG

no ’sunday chihuahua cute’ pics this week, just a picture of elaine’s jack (a jack russell terrier)…

Elaine's Jack

this is such a sad picture…

elaine’s dog jack, laying on her purse, on an old chair (owned by us for at least 5 years) that once belonged to elaine.

shortly after i brought jack to our house (last fri night/early sat morning) after she’d passed away, this is where jack laid down and wouldn’t lay anywhere else

some wonder if dogs ‘know’ - i think they do. jack knows.
