Hi friends. I’m sorry to give you some bad news. Jack was feeling sick over the last week with what we thought was tooth pain. Unfortunately it was an aggressive cancer that had invaded his lymph nodes, chest cavity, and abdominal area. It had attached to the spleen and spine. He was declining rapidly over the weekend and when we took him in for X-rays and ultrasound it all came clear. He was very peaceful at the end and he is at rest now. We are sad and quite in shock, but wanted you to know. Jack brought so much joy to us and to the world. His 9th birthday was yesterday, October 21.
Jack the Scottie 
Oh Beth! So sorry to hear this. Holding you as I can from a distance. Love you! K
Thank you, my friend. We are just heartbroken. ❤️
Oh, my goodness! I am so very sorry to hear this awful news. I know what you’re going through as I’ve had a similar ‘out of the blue’ illness with my last rescue Scottie who also went over the Rainbow Bridge. Please know how much we all enjoyed reading about Jack. May you find comfort in all the memories you have of him as he lives on in your heart forever.
Wishing you peace & sending our love.
Thank you. It is so very hard to let them go. Jack will continue … ❤
I am so sorry to hear this sad news. I have followed Jack’s adventures with great delight. We also lost a beloved dog suddenly. No matter how it happens, it is a deep heartache. With their unconditional love and faithful companionship, dogs leave their paw prints on our hearts forever. We will hold you close in prayer. Hugs to you and to Arya 🐾❤️
Thank you, Leanne. It’s so hard to lose these beloveds. Thank you for hugs. Arya and I had a very long walk today. (And fast, compared to walks with Jack.)
OH, MY!! I am so sorry. My heart aches for you.
Thank you, Karen. ❤
I am SO sorry . . .. this happened MUCH too early. Thank you for sharing Jack with us. I’m so glad you have so much to remember him by. He was special to me because he helped me to heal from the loss of my own Scottie. I am heartbroken for you and with you.
Thank you, Robin. love to you.
Tears… So sad for you, for Jack. You gave him the best home EVER — all his days.
Look at that puppy-face — who wouldn’t fall in love? And the mischief of being a verrrah good Scottish terror. A classic. He brought laughs as he showed us the full life.
Thank God for understanding hoomans – you his family and his vet who knew how to ease his pain and quell any fear.
Much love and hugs. Now he can safely chase varmints and have all the treats he wants.
He’s getting caught up with Spec. And I’m sure they are getting in trouble. Wasn’t his puppy face wonderful. Thank you for being such a good auntie … and travel buddy for flat jack.
Oh no! Lisa and I are so very sorry to hear this very sad news! Our heart breaks for you! Please know we are keeping both of you…and Arya…in our thoughts and prayers in a huge way. Sending much love your way!
Thank you, Lisa and Sharon. Love and gratitude. ❤
That “moonovermountain” comment was from Sharon Webb. So, so sorry about Jack!
Words can not express my sorrow for your loss. Marty
Thank you, Marty

So sorry about Jack. We will miss him and his adventures.
Thank you. ❤
This is gutwrenching news. I’m afraid I’m not a good blog friend as I’m only now learning of this tragedy. My heart is heavy for you. I wish you peace in your grief and mourning. With Scottie love, Winston’s Mom
Oh, thank you. Your timing is perfect as we missed him a lot today. He was the best sous chef of the floor. Thank you. And best wishes. ❤️
Still thinking of you…
Thank you!! He always loved the holidays. All that cooking. And the wrapping paper on Christmas. Thanks for thinking of us. ❤️
Always. Holding you close to my heart.
