Today is nine months since New Year’s Eve. Nine months since we brought Jasper home as an emergency foster for Oldies Club and failed at fostering as quickly as we thought we probably would
We have loved sharing our lives with Jasper since we adopted him. He is such a sweet boy and he truly seems at home here. It’s hard to believe that our gorgeous, happy boy wouldn’t have been here at all if it wasn’t for a compassionate vet who was reluctant to put him down – and Oldies Club for agreeing to take him.
According to Jasper, it’s very important to celebrate nine month gotcha days with a good steak, so Daddy bought and cooked a lovely (if you’re not vegetarian like me!) one for the dogs this evening. It’s been Jasper-approved.
Here are a few photos from this afternoon of our delightful treasure. Happy Nine Months Jasper Bear ♥
When Jasper came to us, we were told not to let him off lead as he didn’t respond to his name. Well, we have a brilliant bond with him and he is very good at coming back when called – and whenever he is walking ahead, he turns his head regularly, as demonstrated below, to check that we’re still there. Oh and if you’re wondering what that is in the photo above his tail, it’s either a fairy or a daddy-long-legs!
He does love to run.
