Sorry for the long time between updates! I am getting ready to graduate from college and move so it's been pretty hectic. Here's a video of what Jake has been doing..

Le Puparazzi
Picked up Jake's photo by Le Puparazzi today that we had taken at the Shampooch Charity Event. I love it. Captures him so well!

4th Annual Shampooch
Today Jake & I went to the 4th Annual Shampooch. He got professional photos taken and a bath! The proceeds benefit the Harbor House (domestic violence shelter- LINK) to build a kennel to house the pets of domestic violence victims while they get back on their feet. Definitely a cause worth supporting.
Some pics :)
We had a good day!

Just a dog
"From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a dog," or, "that's a lot of money for just a dog." They don't understand the distance traveled, the time spent, or the costs involved for "just a dog."
Some of my proudest moments have come about with "just a dog." Many hours have passed and my only company was "just a dog," but I did not once feel slighted.
Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by "just a dog," and in those days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a dog" gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day.
...
If you, too, think it's "just a dog," then you will probably understand phases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise." "Just a dog" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure unbridled joy. "Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better person.
Because of "just a dog" I will rise early, take long walks and look longingly to the future. So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a dog" but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past, and the pure joy of the moment.
"Just a dog" brings out what's good in me and diverts my thoughts away from myself and the worries of the day.
I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just a dog" but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a human."
So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog." just smile, because they "just don't understand."
