Jack the Scottie was a "real dog," despite the cartoons included herein. (Cartoon Jack was much more cooperative than "real Jack.") Jack passed away suddenly in October of 2018. He lives on in the hearts of many. In 2020, JJ Shannon McGreggor came to live with Beth's family. Where as Jack was a mystic, JJ enters life as a warrior.
