Pet-On-e-Street photos by Valorie Hillerich
is is Poppy. She loves her walks. And
she lets Mom Joanne Perry know when it is
time to go out! Smart!
Meet our new
neighbors, Zoe the
Lab mix and Mom
Janet Nachtigal. Zoe
loves meeting all the
little dog friends.
She's very well
behaved.
Dad John
Swanson tells me
that 12-year-old
Tasha is half
Shih Tzu and
half Maltese. She
loves to walk and
eat … so I gave
her a treat, of
course!
Mom Kim Lewis-Hoyt calls this little
cutie her "grumpy old man." Maybe that's
because he doesn't have enough shoes —
his name IS "Jimmy Choo."
Look who I met — it's "Duck." What a
great name, right? Dad Gary Samaha
said she's a mix of Chihuahua, Terrier,
and cuteness. I agree!
