Jack went from an uncertain future to life in a happy Cape -- !!

Here's the story of Jack, one of our labbies from South Carolina, whose complete story is here...

Kelly and her boyfriend were kind enough to transport these loves up North, and then it was all down-hill from there -- !!

At the home visit of Chris and Amy, little Jack (now named Normand) finds his new momma quickly..!!

Chris, Jack's new Dad, thinks, "Hmmm... this pup was MY idea, and I'm not even getting to pet him -- !!"

Jack continues in his bliss -- MOMS RULE -- !!

Finally, I get a shot in with the boy, who gives me a good-bye lick or two...

And then he's off to explore his new pad...

Haha -- first legs on a hardwood floor -- !!

He quickly finds his first toy, and his bat-like ears help balance him on the slippery floor -- !!

Finally, Chris gets some quality time with the little man...

... and the family is complete -- Chris and Amy update me often and tell of this little man's successes --

-- GREAT WORK, ALL!

One month update -- !!

Well, a month has gone by, and little Normand continues his love for momma -- !!

Chris writes:

" Just letting you know that Jack is doing awesome!!! He is such a great pup.

He is doing great and is getting very big. Last week he weighed in at 31 pounds. Thanks for everything and I look forward to seeing the pics on the site."

Here's Normand, with his girlfriend, Jax --

"Shhhh," says Normand -- "Pups and cats aren't SUPPOSED to get along -- !!"

So, this boy's come a long way -- from basically a dead dog walking to a happy, loving home with plenty of stimulation and fun --

-- THANK YOU, Chris and Amy, for doing right by this boy -- !!

Spring 2006 update!

Well, lookie here -- our boy got big -- and someone else came in to the mix -- !!

Chris writes --

"Hey Eric -

Norman is doing great. He just got a new sister a few weeks ago. Her name is Lola, she is a Rotti. They are getting along great. He is a great teacher.

Other than that everything else is great. I attached a few new pics of Norm and sis.

Hope everything is going well.
Chris and Amy"

Welcome, Lola -- !!

And just LOOK at Norman! He came from a South Carolina litter that the rescuer threathened to euthanise because she thought they were "part pit bull" -- far from the truth -- !!

These are the joys of life, really -- to see little Norm go from being an unwanted puppy to a year later, showing up as a prince -- !!

Thank you, Chris and Amy, for making Norm's life a noble one!

Look at how BIG Lola got -- 2008!

It's Jan 2008, and Chris writes --

"Hey Eric, just wanted to give you an update. Norman is doing awesome. He has grown into the older brother role with his sister Lola. They are like two peas in a pod. Here are some pics. I'll keep in touch. Chris & Amy"

Well, these two certainly enjoying their lives -- in a pretty care-free, happy environment -- !!

Bahahaha -- Norm is mostly labby, that's for sure --

-- NONE of my pups would be caught DEAD in such water -- !!

And here is Norm, appeasing Dad -- :D

Great work, Amy and Chris -- he looks wonderful!
