Jack Has A "Stay of Execution"

well, it had been decided that Jack was going to be PTS, as, lately, i have been the only one that he is about 90% predictable w/....i can read his "cues" (body language) quite well and he and i have an agreement, of sorts....i wouldn't feel he's safe enuff to go to someone i don't know and i don't feel he's trustable w/ kids, which put him as not being able to stay my dog (which would, otherwise, have been so) as my grandkids come over regularly....he has the attitude of if he wants something that someone else has, he will bite (aggressively) to get it.....

but, it just so happens that a friend that has been watching his doings w/ me and is well aware of what she's up against is going to take him and keep on working w/ him (well, actually, her boyfriend is, but he'll be w/ her at times, too)....she's going to continue w/ all i have accomplished so far (and i have really come a ways w/ him) and i think as there are no kids in the mix, it just might work....and if it does, than he will be in a happy home....

i decided the other day to try him on some of the agility stuff, just see what he would do....i did the dog walk and the A-frame w/ him and he went over them both like he has been doing it forever....and i know that the man that owned him had never done anything like that w/ him....so, maybe some agility put in for fun as well and he'll be really happy....think he could pass for a Patterdale?
