Dear Jasper,
When I first laid eyes on you at the pet store I fell in love. I knew you were the dog I always wanted. I remember dreaming about owning a fluffy, white dog and there you were, cute as a button as they say. You did cost me a hefty amount, and probably came from a puppy mill, but I did NOT care. Even the puppy's from puppy mills need love and you were already radiating with it towards me. Full bred Maltese boy who I immediately decided I wanted to name Jasper. I read your "birth certificate" and learned you were from Arkansas, your birthday was a few months before on January 3rd, 2008 and your parents names were Buckwheat and Mattie!
It is three years later and you are still always right by Mama's side! Humans, well . . .they can come and go. But dogs truly are a (wo)man's best friend! I know we have moved around a lot little guy, and your mother has not been able to fully train you because of this. Whenever you were starting to behave like a good doggy, mama picked you up and moved you somewhere new again and you had to start over. When I first got you, you had a daddy I was living with, Eddie and his dog Shadow. Shadow was like a father figure to you and you two were best buds. But when Eddie informed me one day that Shadow passed away, I remember how sad we all were and you didn't want to do anything but lay around. When Eddie and I broke up, we moved to Corona with my parents and you were introduced to three chihuahuas and one mutt. But then we had to move again to Rancho Cucamonga and then a few months later to Claremont. You fell in love with a GIRL dog and then I uprooted you again and back to Rancho we went. I am sorry for all the moving around little bud, but at least you get to see many new places. Now we are in Washington and you have no friends and no backyard. But at least when I bring you to your new Daddy's you can run around in the backyard, even though you insist upon being in mamas arms at all times! I love you so much and I never want to lose you because I would cry my eyes out and fall into a very deep depression. I love you more than anything and you are mama's best friend!!!!!!!!!!
