Roz just turned nine. She has been my baby since she was about 7 weeks old. Although she has arthritis, she still plays frisbee like a pup. She can differentiate between "ball", "frisbee", "bone", "toy". She can be calm at times, but there's lots of Jack Russell energy around the house. Roz enjoys long rides hanging her nose out of the pick up truck, energetic romps on the mountain trails, and hogging the bed. Her best pal, Daphne (also a Jack), passed away this year and we struggled through it. Roz and I adopted a shelter dog on Halloween (a 5 yr old Jack) to be a part of our pack.
