Jesse is Mark’s dog. His mother was a border collie and his father was probably a beagle/lab mix. He has a mind of his own and apparently some genetic problems with fear and anxiety that cause him to read social situations slightly wrong  and we have not managed to teach him not to growl and snap when he feels pressured/is reprimanded/is asked to do something he doesn’t want to, even when our requests are perfectly reasonable. So to give him a change to act and respond less emotionally we are giving him phych. drugs. As long as he gets the right dose he is a cuddly boy that can be quite cute and charming and also very playful with us and other dogs.
