Pet of the Month
We love your pets, so we’re showcasing them.
- Bubba
We’re excited to introduce our March Pet of the Month, Bubba!
Bubba belongs to his wonderful owner, Deb, and he’s a very special pup.
💦Bubba and Deb love spending time together going for walks, and when the weather is nice, Bubba enjoys swimming in the river at Riverbottom.
🧸His favorite toy is a stuffed bear, and when it comes to treats, Bubba isn’t picky—he loves them all! When it’s time to rest, Bubba’s favorite place to sleep is snuggled up with his “brother,” Tavish.
🐾Bubba is an especially smart and very loving Basset Hound. One of his unique talents is that he’s a retrieving Basset, which is pretty rare!
🐶One of Bubba’s cutest quirks is how much he loves being around people and other dogs. He can often be found watching out the front window, hoping for visitors to stop by.
