Donuel, his name was actually Arlo, Jack Shit was what I called his breed. I was sitting on a bench out on Canal St one night and a group was going home from the bar. One of the girls asked "Ooh, what kind of dog is that?" I said "He's a Jack Shit" and her boyfriend said that was the funniest thing he heard all year. You would have like knowing Arlo. He was funny and feisty and brave and cute as all get out. In the movie "Dean Spanley" which I heartily recommend, Peter O'toole's character say that there are only ever seven great dogs on Earth at any given time. Well, Arlo was one of the seven. He left us far too soon and broke our hearts.
