Justice for Jesse

    Jesse James my almost 3 year old blueheeler coonhound mix was taken from me and my children. He was our protector our friend our family.
    He was taken for biting 2 people who were previously warned in person do not come around this dog and they did anyways. He was not neglected or at large when these accidents occurred.
    The first incident happened to a boy..who was at my home the night before it happened for a birthday party. He was told by me and my children do not come on the property if the " black dog" was outside. The very next morning jesse was outside on his lead using the bathroom ( keep in mind this dog has always been an inside dog but he does go out to use bathroom) the boy came on my property because his grandfather sent him to weedeat the bank up our driveway. After being told the very night before he comes down with jesse out on lead (40 foot long) and sits weedeater down and starts it beside him on lead and the jesse bit him.
    The next accident occured when a woman showed up unexpectedly at my house on sunday she had never come without a weekday appointment. I have text messages where she texted me the previous visit and asked me to put up dog because she was here. She had been in my home before and i told her the dog didnt like strangers and would bite her to let me know beforehand of our appointments and i would make sure he was secure, which she did the next time she came. On this day he was inside the house when she showed up without my knowledge and i was in shower. Her story is this she came and knocked on the door the dog jumped out the side vent of the window air conditioner bit her and jumped back through the ac. Jesse is a large 90lb dog and this is a large ac so not very much room on the sides for a 90lb dog to fit through. And if jesse ever accidentally got loose he would run and run the coonhound insticts kicked in but yet he got out the tiny hole and instead of running he jumped back in weird huh? I do believe she opened the door and hollered and he bit her because he wouldve never went out and just come back in. On occasion he has accidentally been let out by my kids and i lived in a subdivision he would run through other peoples yards with them out and about and he would never stop bark growl or anything to people on their own property. This dog was here to protect MY PROPERTY MY FAMILY!
    Animal control came the first time and had me quarantine the dog and to not let him outside on lead unattended which i did..i never let him out after that without supervision and bought new leads long enough to reach my door so he was tied up from the door and let out already chained up so there couldnt be any incidents of him getting out and i also started letting him out on my upstairs deck so it wasn't even possible for him to get loose at all.
    The next time the animal control came they gave me the option to load him up and let them take him ir they were coming in my property after him and if he growled bit charged or anything they were going to shoot him. So i brought the dog out and loaded him up so i didnt have to see my dog killed in front of me.
    This dog isnt just a dog he is family. Ive had him since the day he was born. I chose to keep this puppy out of litter because since he was big enough to walk he didnt play with his mom or the puppies instead he followed me around and cried for me to hold him, the other puppies would cuddle up together and sleep and he would stand beside my bed and cry until i would pick him up and let him sleep with me. He has for the last few years been by my side through any and everything. This has broken mine and my children's hearts. He loves his family very much and we love him more. I babysit children in my home and he sat beside these children and guarded them while they were here never once did he try to bite them. He protects everything ive brought into the house since ive had him children, kittens, puppies, goats everything. If i cry this dog cries with me if im sick or my children are he is in the bed snuggled up with us. He would pin us down and lick our faces until slobber was dripping off us. He protected me through a very abusive relationship he would jump in between him and me if he so much raised his voice at me. If it came a thunderstorm he would crawl up in my lap and cuddle until it was over. When i come in from work everyday it was like he hadnt seen me for months he would be so excited to see me his whole body wagged.
    They took my best friend my family my child from me. Now they want to put him down for doing what he was here to do protect his family and property.
    Please help save Jesse!!
