Back in November 2019, I got another dog, Casper. I had another dog, Big Redd, a doxie, that I had to put down a week before Christmas 2018. It took almost a year to find just the right dog and I got him at the VFW Post in San Jacinto. He is part Yorkie-poo and Jack Russel. I am so glad to have this dog in my life because he helps me zloty. Not just a campion but he calms me down. He is very laid back and is calm, cool and collected. This is the first video in my Vets and their Pets series.
