My Jake had to be put to sleep on 14/2/2007,he was 13yr 7mnth and even after 2 years there is not a day that goes by when I don't burst into tears at the drop of a hat.I remember bringing him home late August 1993 and he was so small that he could sit all 4 of his paws in my hand(I think he was only 6 weeks old when I got him)I never went abroad when Jake was here,instead we'd just go to a mates cottage in Cornwall and spend our time relaxing,walking on the beach,trips to the pub.1 day I left him in the cottage to take someone out to dinner(the restaurant was 30 yards from the cottage),as I was about to start a lady tapped me on the shoulder and asked if I was such and such,I had NO idea what this could be about so I said that Yes I was such and such.'I don't want to worry you she said' at that moment my heart sank deep into my chest 'but we've got a Staffie outside that we think belongs to you' So out I went and there was Jake within a big crowd of people around him.It turned out that he must of thought i'd left him so he proceeded to charge the cat flap until the whole panel had fell out of the door.He was also with my Grandad at the moment he died of a heart-attack and refused to let a couple of teenagers get close to my Grandad,there must of been something about them that he either didn't like or trust.
If i'd woke up 1 day to find him dead on my bed I would be feeling a thousand times better than I do now,I even called the vet to the house so as Jake didn't expect the worse,as they came in my boy jumped off the settee and made a big fuss of the people i'd called round to kill him.I have 2 other dogs,a 7 yr Staffie bitch whom I bought for Jake and in May 2007 I bought a Bull Terrier as I couldn't of beared the thought of getting a male Staffie and the house was so quiet as Jake wasn't around snoring and farting etc
I just feel so alone witout my little boy,tears are streaming down my face as I type this,the only consolation that I have is that he's buried in the garden and he'll always be alive in my heart.

Shout My Name Upon A Hill

And Look About Each Day,
You Will See Me Everywhere.
I Never Went Away....

Jake

Jake, you will be joined on Friday by a very special staffie lad called Freddie, show him the ropes up there and make him welcome. Ive asked my Meg to do the same. Freddie is a troubled lad and easily scared but we love him to bits and thats why we are letting him come join you and the gang so he can, at last find some peace xx
