April 2018 Update!
"Juliette Jake" (Blues Brothers fan), BSR alum 1004, is a happy, healthy 2-year old. He still shows some anxiety at times, but overall is much more secure.
Jake loves to ride. Any destination is fine, just so he's in a vehicle with his family. While he resists going out in the rain, any lake or river is his friend, no matter how cold.
We just celebrated our 1-year mark with Jake, and there's no doubt that we are the ones who benefited most from this match. Our thanks to everyone at BSR for all you do!
