Jessica will always have a special place in my heart. Jessica was my first Labrador and my first obedience dog. She and I both learned together from the Novice A ring to the ultimate UDX title, which she earned in eleven shows. Jessica is currently in a battle with lung cancer. Jessica is part of an experimental clinical trial being conducted at the Univ. Wisconsin School of Veterinary Medicine of taxol, an inhalation chemotherapy agent. I am very happy to say that after almost two years she is holding her own.
Jessica is featured as the *SUCCESS* story in the UW Vet Sch Animal Cancer Treatment Program booklet just released.
Jessica lost her battle on October 22, 1999. She is gone but will never be forgotten.
