PETS OF THE WEEK

Colonel Valentine Hopsalot

Though his name is bigger than he is The Colonel makes up for small stature in big personality. He loves zooming around the living room, lounging on the couch, and doing tricks for his favorite vegan dog treats. He’s an extrovert who thinks all dogs and cats are his friends but his best friend is his bearskin rug (made from a thrifted teddy bar), they cuddle every day.
