What is America's Favorite Pet?
Learn MoreHis favorite treat is the no-hide salmon chews from earth animal’s brand. His favorite toy is his spiky ball or his many lamb chop lambies.
His most unique quality is his openness and trusting nature. He is an adventurous sweetheart, he is as fierce as a big dog would be packed into 12 pounds! He amazes us with his easy going and “go with the flow” attitude. As far as looks, he has the perfect silver and fawn coloring with brindle on his legs and a white patch on the chest and on one back foot, just like his mom.
Our dog should be America’s Favorite because he is a once in a lifetime pet. In the 2 1/2 years we have had him in our home, he has licked our tears away, made us laugh when we need it most and shown unconditional love as well as gratitude-even though he came from a not so nice situation he has been nothing but grateful and he makes a difference in our lives, that’s what a true best friend does. He deserves all the love in the world because he may be small but his heart is gigantic!
