Jeb came along just at the right time. We had broken hearts after one of our dogs passed away and by chance Wendy spotted an ad on Craig's List for a full blooded black lab puppy and wrote to the breeders. She told them about the kind of life he would have on the farm. Turns out we were offering what they were hoping they'd find! The perfect life for a farm dog!

They had named him "Mosby" after John Mosby, also known as the "Gray Ghost," who was a regular Confederate cavalry battalion commander in the American Civil War. We decided to name him after Major-General James Ewell Brown Stuart, chief of cavalry of the army of Northern Virginia, a legendary figure, ranking as one of the greatest cavalry commanders of America. We are Civil War History buffs and thought JEB would be a great name for this guy.
