It’s no surprise that universities are welcoming cat and dog therapies on their campus and that dogspotting groups are flourishing on Facebook. Pet ownership has been linked to healthier owners, both physically, mentally, and emotionally. In case you missed October’s puppy therapy, we decided to print you a permanent version. You’re welcome. Thanks to everyone who sent us a picture of their pet!
Most liked on Facebook: Charlie
“Charlie is a 5 month old Lagotto Romagnolo, and this is him with his favorite toy, lambchop. Lambchop is no longer with us.. in fact.. most of his toys have not survived. Lagotto Romagnolo’s are Italian dogs (pretty rare in North-America) and they are specially bred to find truffles.”
Best dressed: Lala
“I like to steal people’s socks”
Most unique: Artemedes

“He is 13 and has never met a body of water he didn’t like, he’s torn ligaments in both his hind legs so he has to wear his PFD (puppy floatation device) now.”
