Jeff the Irish Setter Blend

Well, we just love, love, love JASPER! Yes, we renamed Jeff and he already recognizes his new name. It has been two weeks and our lab/boxer mix Sophie is still working on the "warming up" attitude! But, no hostility - just jealousy occasionally. Jasper is a dream dog! In all the years we have had dogs, my husband has never had one that followed him everywhere and Jasper does just that! My husband is thrilled - he has always wanted a buddy. Jasper is so well trained, he is actually showing Sophie some "p's and q's" about behavior. We think we really lucked out and I think Jasper thinks so too! Funny thing though, we can't figure out what Jasper likes to play with. He loves chasing lizards in the yard, but not too interested in tug, or ball toss, or Sophie's favorite game of keep away. He loves his walks morning and night and he has found a favorite place to lay down...that would be at our feet wherever we are! Our Vet says he is in great shape - he had a minor procedure to help his scrotum heal a little faster. He as an ace at the Doc's and seems to like everyone he meets. He does bark to alert us of people nearby, but never with hostility. Just a "hi and I am so excited to see you!" kind of thing. I guess that is all - just wanted to know that we are so very happy we got accepted as his new parents. Here are two shots of him checking out our back yard, which he now knows by heart! Thank you for you help and tell everyone who cared for Jeff that Jasper is doing just fantastic!
