“No fuckin way, ya ain’t comin in this house, so shut up! Stop that barkin!”

Place is bad enough without dog hair and fleas and who knows what else floatin around…why’d I have to find this dog…costin me money, keepin me up, follows me around everywhere, nothin but a pest.

The dog finally quieted and Ennis slept through the rest of the night, but when he went out in the morning, it was curled up in a tight ball for warmth, Ennis looked at the thermometer hanging on the side of the trailer - 35. The dog didn’t get up right away and when it finally did, its limp was more pronounced than ever, even keeping that leg off the ground and hobbling on three legs for a while until the muscles relaxed and the blood got flowing.

It didn’t hold a grudge, though, walked to Ennis’s side and pushed its head under his hand for a pet.

It was starting to occur to Ennis that this dog might be staying around, and if it did, he couldn’t let it sleep outside through a Wyoming winter.......

Shit.

I cannot wait until his grandchildren meet little Jack. I know the dog does not have a name but this seems so appropriate to me since he acts so much like Jack. I can see Jack barking about the cold but still sticking around no matter how cold for Ennis and just wanting a little affection. I think of Jack's sore muscles and back from the cold but he kept coming back for more from Ennis just to spend a little time with him. Joe

I'm sure Ennis has a nagging memory of how Jack picked up that sheepdog puppy and carried it in his jacket all the way up Brokeback...
