76 - A Tribute to Jersey

Pets and their owners share a special bond, and in fact, over 90% of pet owners regard their dogs and cats as part of the family and call them their “fur babies”. At the end of the day, your pet can be one of the most loyal friends you will ever have, and giving them the love and attention that you’d give to a parent, sibling or child benefit everyone. In episode 76, Genny shared the story of their beloved dachshund Jersey. How loveable and playful she was, and that she had this great personality. She shared some of the traits associated with doxies or wiener dogs, as they are sometimes referred to because of their long body, such as stubbornness, loyalty and protective nature, and relayed how Jersey demonstrated those traits. Genny also shared that her daughter Crystal was Jersey’s “mom” and got her as a pup. She was Crystal’s fur baby, her companion, and her pal. The love between the two was something special. When Crystal and her partner Brent started working long days, they realized that Jersey couldn’t stay home all day by herself, so they asked Genny and her husband Frank if they would look after Jersey. Of course, they said yes and welcomed their “grand fur baby” into their home. Genny spoke about all the special moments they experienced with Jersey, about Jersey’s special bond with Frank, and how everyone loved Jersey and how she loved everyone. She also shared the tough decision that the family made to let Jersey travel across the Rainbow Bridge.
