Newsletter - week 3

Dog of the week:

Atticus – Atticus is known as the dog who greets everyone with his mouth! But did you know that he is a big foster brother to many puppies? His mom fostered him (and failed, thankfully) and now still fosters others. We refer to Atticus as the Ambassador to the Puppies.
