My Jack Russell Story:
Patch, the "little dog too brave to die", (see story), has made a full recovery from her major operation and one month's convalesce in her veterinarian's care. She is now a vigorous 20 month-old, ruler of her domain, i.e. my house and all of Delaware.
Patch's great delight is to spend her day in a state park near her home where she amuses the children and plays endlessly with them as the best stand-in for Wishbone they could want. Some even bring her little costumes to try on! Would you believe a JRT endures this with a smile?
This summer, she learned to body-surf in the gentle waters of the Fire island Inlet off Long Island. Patch's enthusiasm for life and new experiences is infectious!
