My Story:

I recenly moved over to Edinburgh from Ontario Canada. My partner is from Northern Ireland and we both fell in love with this city and decided last December this is where we wanted to be.
I was lucky enough to find a job I love here, we got ourselves a cute one bedroom cottage near the beach and I am loving my new life in Scotland.

After years of travelling and moving from place to place I finally found I was settled enough to have a dog as part of my family. So, at the start of October a sweet 3 1/2 year old Staffie Cross (crossed with what I don't know but is is fairly tiny and a lot of people see Boxer in his face). He came onto my books at work and I knew a bit about his past. He smothered everyone with affection and, even though he not been delt the best cards in life, he still adored people and his whole little body squirmed and wriggled when you scratched him bum!! We found a home for him but he was sadly returned a week later and with that I knew he had to come home with me. He was a very special dog and no home, other then my own, was going to be good enough for him!

He sits at my feet everyday at work, he travels with me on the bus, he cuddles me on the couch while I read, he gets walked everyday on the beach and on the weekends he loves hill climbing.
His down sides are that he hates other dogs and he farts a lot but.. I would never want any other dog.
Photos of little Jacks to come soon!!
