This is our newest addition to our family home, he was found abandoned in Cadiz and rescued from the perrera at La Linea by Brigitte Jaquillard who has left Save A Mastin and has now founded Mastin Matters, who are arranging for this young boy to come over to the UK and live with us.

Our lovely boy Jake is a young affectionate soul, he pretends his deaf until you’re calling him for food! and likes to think he is a lapdog!

As an overgrown puppy he has been a little challenging, choosing to chew everything insight except for his chew toys! but we’ve worked hard at it and he is at last coming out the other side. Another problem Jake had was when he got excited, was to use his mouth on us, as he would when he played with Bannana and Thor (Clarke Gable). For this reason we decided to keep our young grankiddies away until we got him out of it!

This weekend coming we have our oldest grankiddie, who is 7, coming to spend a couple of hours, so that Perun can start with his introduction to children. We’re hoping that by the time the Winter Solstice comes he will be able to meet all our grankiddies, who already get on with Bannana and Thor. We will ensure all 3 go for a nice long walk before the kiddies get here so they will be in a more relaxed state of mind.

Looking forward to updating you in the new year.
