Jeb

We are sad to announce our 2019 alumnus, Jep’s passing. Jep came to SEGSP when his original owner had cancer and couldn’t take care of him any longer. It was obvious Jep had been loved very much and went straight to a loving foster home with Liz and then was adopted by the Short family, his loving forever home. 

His mom Chara said, “We had to say goodbye to Jep on Tuesday. He developed epilepsy in January of 2024. We managed to the best of our ability, but it is a vicious disease. He was the best dog and the easiest patient to manage. I’ve never known a better pill taker. In the end, we couldn’t keep the seizures controlled. Our hearts are broken but are comforted in knowing he isn’t suffering. Jep was the most perfect dog who truly did no wrong. He will never ever be replaceable and will always be in our hearts.” 


“Such short little lives our pets have to spend with us, and they spend most of it waiting for us to come home each day. It is amazing how much love and laughter they bring into our lives and even how much closer we become with each other because of them." – John Grogan
