“My daughter, Victoria, moved back home last spring and got this cute Husky puppy named Kora. She has her own Instagram page and is a canine fashion influencer! Kora is smart, strong, sassy, and speedy! She “zooms” around the yard at top speed and leaps off boulders. She loves to dig holes making extra work for her humans who try to keep this white dog clean. Check out her ice blue eyes that have perfect eyeliner!”
– Terri Linman, Instructional Designer MA
“Meet Petunia and Persimmon! Decided raising day old chicks was a good idea . . .”

“Here are my babies! Kane is the German/Australian Shepherd and Whiskey is our golden chihuahua. They are the bestest friends! They love to be close to me while I work, and I have to say it’s definitely calming during such an unfortunate and crazy time. Kane is the big friendly giant and Whisk is the feisty one.”

“Meet Finny. My children surprised me with one betta fish on Christmas. The reason they got it for me was that they believed I have been stressed and cranky all year long and hoped that the pet fish would help me relax my mind. So far so good!”

“This is Morrigan “I will fight you” Mayhem Clabaugh. She was found in a box by the dumpster at 3 days old and we took her in. She died for a short while but came back & ever since she has been nothing but feisty joy.”
