Aggressive Dog Jack's mom comes to take him back to their home

     Lauren finally couldn't stand her baby being away from her any longer, so she came and picked him up. And Jack was sure glad to see her (as you can tell from the photos below). Maybe my counseling and that of all those who wrote emails about Jack's situation influenced Lauren, or maybe she just realized on her own that the unconditional love between her and Jack was far stronger than all the advice she'd been receiving from others, which advice had persuaded Lauren to give Jack up a week ago. We are all very happy that Lauren and Jack have been reunited, and we're sure they will live together happily ever after.

A very happy Jack wants to tell the world that his mom has come back for him! "I knew she'd be back!" says Jack.

Jack and Lauren dance in celebration.

We hope the above photos explain better than any of the words we've written this week how
important it is never to give up on a pet you love and who loves you unconditionally.
