Jack and I Have Been Busy

I apologize for not blogging sooner but Jack and I have been quite busy at the pet store.  He comes with me almost every time I work.  He is a wonderful pet store dog. He's only stolen a few pig ears and pig snouts.  I think that's pretty good since we also have treats at his level which he ignores.  Every other dog that comes in tries stealing them so it's not that they aren't tasty.

I thought I should show you a few pictures of Jack at work at the pet store. In the picture below he is enjoying a pig ear Paula gave him. This probably began his obsession of pig parts. LOL!


Here is Jack sharing in on the shenanagins going on at work. Those are organic packing peanuts he has as eyebrows. 


Jack even has his own Party Mix he is selling.
Here is one of Jack's favorite places to rest or watch the action.

Hmmm. Maybe he's trying to tell me he wants to try Canidae. I think he is enjoying the Fromm that he's eating now though.


Badger and Jack are becoming good snuggle buddies. They both wanted to be near the fire.


Jack had to move. He was getting too warm.  He didn't even mind Kinsey's butt touching his head. This picture cracks me up.


Jack was asked to model this pretty pink Packer jersey. He did a great job walking the runway.

As you can see, Jack and I have been very busy at work and at napping.  He is such a trouper with all the long hours we've been putting in. He has come such a long way and is no longer that super scared boy I once knew. He is going up to people on his own and even going off to explore.  He's still a bit growly when meeting other canine friends but is learning.  He knows how to sit but I think the schnauzer in him fights it.  He sits in slow motion maybe half the time.  I was joking with my coworkers the other day and started kind of playing with Jack.  I did something and he sat immediately. My co-workers were like, "Do that again.  Whatever you just did made him sit." Well the thing I was doing is what I like to refer to as "jazz hands." If you have ever watched any musicals or Broadway performances you have probably seen some sort of jazz hands where the actors stretch out their hands and shake.  He sat probably 5 out of 6 times I did jazz hands.  How fitting since I love to dance and even have a Dance minor degree. I think Jack started a new training method.  So forgive me forever family if you have to shake your booty as some of the commands. I can almost guarantee  you and Jack will be in great shape after you learn all the training moves. 

Thanks for thinking rescue!
