He's a normal, happy, healthy puppy who loves to play and be loved on. You would never know this is the same starved pup that weighed 31 pounds 12 weeks ago to see him now. He is a fine, strapping, youngster with the best temperment anyone could ask for.<br><br> He loves to hug with his front feet on your shoulders while slurping on your face with his tongue, lol. He is a real lover boy and has yet to meet a stranger. He and Kennedy are best friends and play constantly. </font></p> <p align=left><font face="verdana" size="2"> The most interesting thing with this boy is obviously his coat. He still looks like, acts like, smells like a Giant, lol. The general concensus is the funky color is from his damaged skin and will go away eventually. We'll see. He certainly has B/S points but all the tan/red/brown running through the coat is a mystery. Not to mention the blue merle type markings. Airedale or damage? Catahoula or damage? Breeder mixing colors? Time will tell. We don't care what color he is. We're just happy and blessed to have him as part of our family! But it is fun to guess what he is going to look like as he changes. </font></p> <p align=left><font face="verdana" size="2"> I am teaching him basic commands with accompanying hand signals and the little sucker learns them in about 3 tries. He likes to learn and comes to ask to do stuff so that is very kewl! </font></p> <p align=left><font face="verdana" size="4"> October 4, 2011 </font></p> <p align=left><font face="verdana" size="2"> Jump ahead to almost a year later from the last entry above..... Jasper is a big strong healthy farm dog now. SInce we brought this special boy into our lives we've moved to five secluded acres in the middle of NE TX! Finally out of the city, sorry Dallas..it was fun but adios city life, lol. We've also adopted two 23 year old retired Arabian race horses, added 2 more horses who belong to a friend, several more chickens and 12 guinea birds. </font></p> <p align=center><font face="verdana" size="2"> <img src="/2010/Jasper/Jasperworking.jpg"><br><br> Jasper working hard watching the horses.<br><br> <img src="/2010/Jasper/slackers.jpg"><br><br> Kennedy and Jasper chillin<br><br> <img src="/2010/Jasper/JasperDiscoPresleySareesa.jpg"><br><br> Jasper going to meet Disco the Paint and Presley the Quarter Appendix<br><br> <img src="/2010/Jasper/JKMB.jpg"><br><br> Mz Benz, Kennedy and Jasper<br><br> </font></p> <p align=center><font face="verdana" size="2"> Jasper is a lucky boy and we are lucky to have him in our lives.
