Pet of the Month - June 2013 - George and Tulah



George is a long haired cat who will be 13 in September.  He was a stray kitten found on a rainy night in November and eventually was adopted by Emily and her husband, Randy.  He was initially a she, until on election day Dr. Taylor confirmed it was a boy!  His name has transitioned from George Bushy, to George Bailey, and now is George of the Jungle because he is such a hunter!  He is an amazing cat, and  as he grows older has become more cuddly, loving and needy.  

Tulah turned 5 in May, she is part Golden Retriever and part English Cream Golden Retriever.  She has an amazing personality, but yet will not retrieve anything!  She is content laying on the bed, or in the sun outside.  She loves to chase chipmunks in the hopes that someday she will actually catch one!  Emily had some difficult days and months as she waited on the heart/lung transplant list and months in the hospital waiting and then recovering from surgery.  Tulah visited often, laying in bed with her.  Once Emily was able to be up and around again, their favorite times were walks that they took through Hartman Reserve during the different seasons.  She has provided comfort, companionship and love to Emily and Randy.

Pet of the Month - May 2013 - Ollie Gall


Meet Ollie!  He is a 10 1/2 year old Pap-a-Poo (part Papillion, part Poodle... and according to his human parents, part human too :)  He is a part of the Gall family and gets to participate in most of their activities.  He works at their store, The Runner’s Flat, three days a week and loves all the adult interaction there.  He is only ten pounds so he gets to go most places with his family.  They love to hike, snowshoe, work, go to the store, etc.  He has a 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 year old human siblings who he is ok with, but he really loves to be around other adults.  He is the best dog they have ever had and they will never be able to replace him.  If you would like to meet Ollie, stop by their store and say hello :)
