Jester found his way into the
heart and home of his new master, Brad. Jester was going to lead a life full of love and
companionship with hiking, going to the beach and hunting included...but not long after
Jester found his forever home, he exhibited a slight limp in his left hind leg. This limp
progressively worsened over time to the point that Jester had no use of that leg.
It was found he had a full blown cranial cruciate ligament rupture which required
surgical intervention if Jester was to continue his lifestyle and be free from the immense
pain this caused him. Brad was faced with two options, either have the very necessary
surgery performed or...put him down to free him of his pain. The latter was simply not an
option to Brad.
Jester had his surgery and Brad reports that Jester is on his way to a full recovery now.
Following is a direct statement from Brad to Jester's case sponsor:
"First of all, thank you for all the time you put in. I really appreciate that.
Second, the financial amount is great. Anything helps with this type of thing. I've talked
to quite a few people who shy away from rescued dogs because of their concern for what you
get. I always talk about that I got a great pet, saved an unwanted animal, and how I will
talk about the support that is out there with your organization."
Labrador Life Line is proud to have been able to play a role in Jester's surgery and
recovery. Thank you all for your most generous support of LLL. Without you, we could not
have done this!
