Pets & Critters

July 2022

a monthly feature of the Northwest Observer

Ruby, a cockalier (cocker spaniel/Cavalier King Charles mix), is the newest member of the Roberts family of northwest Greensboro. She loves to shake her paw at every new face she meets and to play soccer with the Roberts’ 5-year-old son, Tristan. Blue, an 11-year- old, 120-pound Labrador/Newfoundland rescue, is adored by the entire Tanvishut family.

The Oak Ridge residents said they are so happy they found Blue – who survived parvo as a puppy – in Wilkesboro, North Carolina. Blue’s nicknames include

“Bluebert” and “Blue-be-doo.” He loves his kiddos, hates thunderstorms and fireworks and can open almost any door. Brutus Olinick, 1 1/2, lives with his family in Summerfield. Brutus greets everyone joyfully by rolling over expecting a belly rub. He loves visiting the Summerfield Feed Mill and helping cook dinner by standing right under his family’s feet, hoping for something to fall to the floor. Chula lives in Stokesdale and loves going outside and playing tug-of-war with her owner, Arely Munoz.
