Therapy Dog Jewel

28/11/2020

Our beautiful Miss Jewel just turned 11. That's quite senior for a Newfie, but she's happy, healthy and as kind as ever. We pamper her every day and hope she has another summer at the lake. We are so proud of all she's done to help kids.

In retirement, Jewel loves to ride on the pontoon and visit friends on Big Wood Lake. One of her favorite friends is adorable Cora. As you can see, Cora loves Jewel too.

I bet he’s about 40 pounds of puppy trouble right now!

Our Jewel is still a beauty at 10 and feeling great, but she's also a great grandmother. This is her 4-month old great grandson Victor--a future rock star. He was born in Slovakia and lives at Seabrook Newfoundlands in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. Kathy and Wayne Griffin DVM raise the most wonderful Newfies on the planet.

Sometimes good friends don't have to say a word--it's all in an expression. Jewel is turning 10 next month (that's very senior for a Newfie) and has just endured 6-months of tough medical treatments. She's been an incredibly kind and caring friend to so many at the University of Minnesota Hospitals. We're going to show her the same care and kindness and give her the best retirement possible.

After enduring 6-months of difficult medical treatment for an autoimmune condition, Jewel returned to the University of Minnesota Hospitals today to visit her many friends. As you can see, she was missed. She is such a trooper and truly loves bringing a few minutes of happiness to the kids, their families, the staff and patients young and old. Jewel still has some tough days ahead, but things are looking up. Thanks for all the kind thoughts and thanks to Jane Battina for helping Laura.

Thanks to all of Jewel's friends at the Children's Hospital who have asked about her. Unfortunately, Jewel is still struggling with an autoimmune disorder that makes her very tired. She's being treated by some very good veterinarians. We hope she can get well enough to visit her friends at the U of M Hospitals, but right now we just want her to feel better. Thanks for your concern.

Our beautiful Ms. Jewel has missed her friends at the University of Minnesota Children's Hospital. For the past month, Jewel has been a pretty sick girl. Under the care of some wonderful veterinarians, she's getting better. We hope she's well enough to visit the kids, families, doctors, nurses and staff this spring. Jewel truly loves being a therapy dog and putting smiles on the faces of her friends at the hospital.
