We asked Hilton Head Monthly readers to send in photos of their cutest pets. For our money, the best of the bunch was Missy, owned by Michael and Cassie Clayshulte. This 2-year-old mini retriever mix is one photogenic pooch! We didn’t have room to print all the photos you sent but have posted them all on our website, www. hiltonheadmonthly.com.
