Remembering 'JET' - 1996-2008.
Posted: 22 Mar 2008, 17:55
This first picture of JET is the one that inspired me to go and rescue him from a kennel where he had been dumped and left there for nearly 3 months by a supposedly reputable nationwide animal rescue organisation.
His ( responsible ) owner had signed him over to them before going into hospital with a terminal illness. A very sad thing to have to do... and a heartbreaking situation all round !
What a terrible shame she hadn't heard of 'Labrador Rescue' !!!
Glenys heard about Jet's situation and asked me to go and take a look at the 12 year old boy and , if possible, get him out of there.
Well.... a lot of anxious phone calls and several visits later, I did indeed bring him home. And as many of you know, he ended his twilight days here with me.
He was a much loved wonderful character and he is sadly missed.
Here are a couple of my favourite pictures of JET !
