How could we have ever known that this little shelter puppy we brought home in January, 1999, would grow up to be our wise Zen master, our Canine Fun Officer and be a source of hope and inspawration to so many people around the world?

It’s hard to imagine what our lives would be like if we had never laid eyes on the one puppy in the shelter who had destroyed every toy in his kennel, who barked, jumped right into our laps, licked our faces and said “get me out of here!”

The world hasn’t been the same since.

Thank you, Jerry.

We will love you forever.

Yesterday is but a dream, tomorrow is but a vision.

But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day.

-Sanskrit Proverb.
