More: Jasper lives in the moment more than any dog I have had the honor of knowing. My teenage son refers to him as his ‘emotional anchor’, an apt description Jasper happily lives up to with his whole heart and devotion. I just took this photo on a trip my son and I took to a cabin in the Catskills with both Jasper and our 9 year old chocolate lab Haley (will be sharing a photo of her too!). They were in heaven with the daily hikes along Thorp Creek where they tested every swimming hole we could find. They are also frequent visitors of the beaches in Delaware where we live. Thank you for the opportunity to share my love of dogs and the outdoors!
