Pet of the Week: “Jojo is quite the smart and sassy little comedian.”
“Jojo is quite the smart and sassy little comedian. She looks like a lap dog, but cuddly she is not (unless there’s a thunderstorm or fireworks)! She never gets tired of chasing rabbits around the neighborhood, despite her lack of success in actually catching one. She can learn a new trick in about 10 minutes, and knows the names of all our family members and close friends, as well as her doggy pals on the block. Her favorite food is…anything we are eating! We love to watch her vigorously attack “trump”, her favorite doggy toy. Jojo is agile and spunky and we just love her so much!”
