Geez...it's hard to think in terms of Jerry "passing"........he is SO ALIVE here! Every post you make...every post we make...every picture, every video, Jerry is by our side.
A dog like Jerry never has an ending to his mission, his soul's purpose never stops, he will ALWAYS be here with us.
And thank doG for Jerry and his human soulmates!!
The words are simple, but sooooooo heart felt, the world IS a better place because Jerry G. Dawg and his humans are in it!
And dogs are better at carrying sticks because Jerry showed them how!!
With love and gratitude,
Sally , Happy Hannah and Myrtle
And the video...all his videos...a national treasure that should be made into a documentary!!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Thank you Sally, the feeling is mutual for you and Hannah, and now Myrtle. You three are changing this world each and every day.

This photo was taken darn near five years and eleven months ago today...
That means it's been almost six years since Jerry left us. Almost. Not that we're counting or anything!

JERRY, JERRY, JERRY! You sure know how to be "one with nature" handsome boy!!! In fact, you make the backdrop of those lovely mountains look even more majestic!!!
I guess itr only fitting that y o u are such a child of nature. As you already know so well Jerry, In nature nothing ever "dies", it just changes form and continues on in some other life affirming way.
Talk about a dog soul who continued on in some"other life affirming way".....WOW!!!!!!
I made the picture bigger so I could see those little wisps of clouds flotating over your head......pretty sure they're filled with Angel Dust......it's only sprinkled on souls who were Angels the day they were born.
With love,
Sally and My Eternal Light Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle too!

What a gorgeous picture. To think of what a paw print he left on the world, just by being and having two great pawrents who made sure he lived one hell of a life and then continued his legacy to help so many of us. Long may you run!!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Jerry -Thanks for touching all our lives. What a beautiful picture.
Spirit Shooter was a Miniature Australian Shepherd who was diagnosed with a MCT and had a LF amp 1/28/13 at 13-1/2 years old.
Shooter crossed the Bridge on 8/28/13, his 7 month ampuversary and two weeks from his 14th birthday.
Jerry, not quite sure how I missed this post. You handsome boy! I think that picture reminds me of what I think it looks like at the bridge. And you know what boy, as I am passing through picking up my furbabies, I am going to hug your neck! Thank you, thank you for being you! For by being you, you have touched the lives of millions for the better! love from Lori and TY
