Jacob will be twenty-one on May 1st. When asked what he wanted, he said that he wanted a dog of his own. They are not short of dogs in his house. His parents have a dog each, as do his younger brother and sister; but until now Jacob has taken his sister's spaniel or his mother's dalamatian to work while they have been respectively at school and at work. (Unlike farms neither schools nor hospitals look kindly on "bring your pet to work".)

This little lady was ready to leave her mother so Jacob got his present four weeks early and Teasel joined the family.
