We miss JD so much every passing moment, everyday. He was such a sweet little boy.

JD was short-haired and tan colored brown Labrador mix. He was very strong and active till the last days of his life. He followed a punctual routine every day. He would eat, drink and take his regular walks, usually once in the afternoon and sometimes late at night. Although he did like his long naps during the day, especially the morning naps. He was an outdoor dog for most of his life and loved basking in the sun in the afternoon. He liked staying around everyone, especially when we had our family movie times in the evening.

This year, we even travelled to South Padre Island together in a camper. He almost walked away one time while we took him out for an evening walk. It was surprising as he walked off quite a bit. We all had a nice chuckle, saying JD decided to head off home without us and took off.

Oh! Miss that good ol’ boy so much. He was such a sweet, carefree boy; very self-sufficient and took care of himself quite well. He was such a sweet and easy dog to handle. Towards the end, his back legs were failing, and he was losing a considerable amount of weight. He needed some assistance with his back legs to get to the backyard deck. He still managed to walk around the house himself.

He gave us the most glorious 14 years of great and loving companionship. He left us on Sep 21, 2020. It was very hard to see him shut down and go away. He went quietly into peaceful slumber in the woods to meet his brother, Charlie Brown. I am happy he is pain-free and in a better place now. I envision him running around with Charlie Brown in the woods of heaven!
