Here’s a special treat from reader AB (pet parent to Grogu and Rey). A very affectionate labradoodle makes a new friend:
Recently I realized my long-time dream of adopting a black kitten from a shelter. I board dogs in my home, and Theodore the labradoodle expressed great interest in meeting my tiny void, Barret. Apparently, Theodore decided to find out if Barret is actually as sweet as he looks. Hopefully Theodore will be getting his own feline buddy soon! His owner was thrilled with this interaction and she’d been wanting a kitty but didn’t know how Theodore would react.
