- Paco
🎉🐾 June Pet of the Month: Paco! 🐾🎉 Proudly loved by Doug and Heather
Meet Paco — an outdoorsy, big‑hearted guy who’s happiest when he’s soaking up fresh air or cruising around on a good car ride.
🌲 Favorite things to do together: Enjoying the outdoors and going for rides.
🏊 Does Paco enjoy swimming? Nope — he’ll pass on the water, thanks.
🧸 Favorite toy: Hard to choose… there are so many toys in his world.
🍖 Favorite treat: Bone marrow treats — absolutely irresistible.
🛏️ Favorite place to sleep: Right in bed with his humans and the whole “woof pak.” Everyone piles in, everyone’s happy.
🌟 Special talents: Not big on tricks, but he can get every dog in the neighborhood barking — a true community organizer.
🤣 Quirky or funny behavior: He loves to flop onto his back and kick all four paws in the air like he’s doing his own goofy little dance.
Paco brings joy, laughter, and a whole lot of personality to his family — and we’re thrilled to celebrate him this month!

🚗🐾 Traveling With Your Pets This Summer?
Here are a few things to keep in mind to make the trip safer and more enjoyable for everyone:
* Pack the essentials: food, water, medications, leashes, waste bags, and a familiar blanket or toy.
* Update ID & microchips: just in case your adventure buddy decides to explore.
* Plan for breaks: pets need regular stops to stretch, hydrate, and relax.
* Keep them cool: never leave pets in a parked car, even for a quick stop.
* Check ahead: confirm pet‑friendly lodging, trails, and activities before you go.
Safe travels and happy exploring with your four‑legged co‑pilots! 🐶🐱💼 ... See MoreSee Less
