FROM THE MOMENT THIS BURLY RED POINTING LAB HIT THE TURF HE WAS ALL BUSINESS, AND YOU COULD JUST TELL HE WAS GOING TO BE A SPECIAL DOG. SOME DOGS WIN ON SPEED, SOME ON NOSE AND OTHERS ON SKILL AND GRACE…JJ WON ON PURE HEART!
HE WOULD TACKLE EVERY FIELD WITH TENACITY AND HAD TO WORK FOR EVERY BIRD BECAUSE JJ WOULD HAVE LITTLE LUCK THROUGHOUT HIS ENTIRE CAREER, AND HIS ENTIRE LIFE HE WOULD PLAY THROUGH PAIN.
FIVE SURGERIES FOR HIS HIPS, SHOULDERS AND TWO BOUTS WITH CANCER WOULD SIDELINE HIM FOR MANY EVENTS, AND SIX METAL PINS WOULD HOLD HIS BODY TOGETHER FOR EACH RUN. NEVER ONCE DID HE COMPLAIN AND THOUGHOUT THE DECADE HE ALWAYS BOUNCED BACK TO GIVE HIS OWNER, CASEY POWELL A WONDERFUL EFFORT. OFTEN OVERSHADOWED BY HIS LEGENDARY BROTHER NEWMAN, JJ NEVER SEEMED TO MIND, ALWAYS WAGGED HIS TAIL, AND HAD AN AWESOME CAREER.
“JARVIS LIVES ON IN JJ” ENTERS THE BDC HALL OF FAME A PLATNIUM STATUS CHAMPION EARNING 427 LIFETIME POINTS, HE CHAMPIONED 21X WITH 1 SUPER MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIP AND 1 BDC MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIP.
HE WAS A SPECIAL DOG WHO WILL FOREVER BE REMEMBERED.
