Our new puppy, Black Jack, is doing well and growing fast. He got a clean bill of health from the vet. He is a lab mix, probably 10-12 weeks old. The vet guessed he will weigh 70 lbs as an adult... I think she underestimated! Time will tell! He loves to play fetch, steal shoes & mittens, and cuddle up in a lap. When he chases the ball or rope, he slides to get it like he is stealing home base... funny to watch! Jessica adores him! BUT... we are still not sure whether or not we can keep him long term. Jacob has had a lot going on... and over the past 2 weeks he has had a cold and unexplained rash... then an ear infection... started a new antibiotic which we since have found out he is allergic to (hives on top of the rash)... SO Jacob and Black Jack have been separated since the first week we had Black Jack. Hopefully, we are figuring some things out and will be able to reintroduce him to Black Jack this weekend without any complications. If the rash or hives return, then we will have to find a new home for Black Jack. Please say a prayer that everything that has happened has another explanation...

Black Jack and the twins play for the first time!
Jacob has found a new buddy... hopefully a permanent one!
Sweet Black Jack... it took many shots to get this one of him sitting still!

What a beautiful puppy! I hope he doesn't turn out to be the cause of Jacob's "issues." I'm saying a prayer that there are other answers which are far easier to apply.:)
