Jack

Jack AKA "Auchi Boy" is 9 and he is a black labrador Retriever. He is, by far, the sweetest boy ever. He would not hurt a fly. He is not needy or demanding. When Auchi was 2, he suffered a grand mal seizure and it was pretty severe. Scared me to death. I always believe in trying the least invasive thing first. I changed his food, I put him on grain free and he has never had another seizure. The first one left him with some quirks. He is slightly claustrophobic and hates steps...will not climb but I have been working with him daily for months now and he does come up the stairs without my being there now. I babied him for years and thought to myself, "this is ridiculous" so I quit. Looking back, I was enabling his fear and not moving him towards independence. Then I had my injury and things stopped for quite awhile. Jack is a darling, kind, loving, and playful. he is my buddy boy.
