Congratulations Jack and Skip Esme!
Back in September 2018, I unexpectedly lost my father to suicide. A few weeks after his passing, I decided to adopt [from A1 Wheatbelt Dog Rescue] this beautiful Corgi x Mixed-breed puppy, named Skip. For years I had wanted to get a puppy, and I believed that this would help me focus my energy positively and help distract me from the awful experiences I was facing.
Raising and loving a pet is truly a life-changing experience, and I had no idea just how much she would change my life for the better. Although there are still many days where I feel lost and hopeless, Skip’s wild, hilarious, and excited nature lifts my spirits and keeps me going.
I am so incredibly glad I adopted her, and I love her dearly.
Jack’s nominated rescue organisation is A1 Wheatbelt Dog Rescue.
