Lost my litttle doggie today.. [View all]

Joey, the Jack Russell terrier. Made it to seventeen years old.

We got him at the shelter when he was 10, not knowing how long we would get to have him.

My little pal has move on to that great big off leash area. This little guy sure left big paw prints on my heart. He was a treasure, and we're glad we got to have him in our lives.
