Enjoy Jessie and don't think about tahe day that is far, far, away. She will give you many years of joy. She will listen to everything you say, follow you around, and stand vigilantly by your bedside should you fall ill. These dogs are in a class by themselves. You said in your post that she has human eyes. Well, she is human! I always said my Mackcie was like a little 4 year old, adorable and mischievous. He understood everything I said to him. Whether he would obey or not immediately, depended on his mood! Most times he would obey, but if he really had a mind set to do otherwise he would pretend to obey me at first, then turn around and do what he wanted. As frustrating as this was at the time, it was also a trait that made him absolutely adorable and lovable.
I saw Jessie's picture. She is beautiful. Enjoy her! Thank you for your beautiful message. Just take good care of Jessie which I am sure you will do.

so touched..... by: Jessie's Mom
your post made me cry. we have our first standard poodle, an almost 7 month old, chocolate, female; her name is jessie. i wanted a standard for a long time and my husband finally agreed and bought her for me from a breeder in south carolina. we were in love the second we laid eyes on her. she was 10 weeks old. she's a lot of work, but i cringe at the thought of the day she will leave us. i know that is many years from now, but i love her so much that it scares me. they are an exceptional breed. i know all breeds have their wonderful character traits, but not one is like the poodle.
my heart breaks for you, however, you were so blessed to have mackie for so many years. and mackie was so blessed to be part of a wonderful family. you gave him a great life. be proud of yourself for that.
