Silliest

Name: Spirit
Breed: Scottish Terrier
Fun Fact: “Spirit is a well suited name for this Scottish Terrier who does not act anything like her 11 years! We live in Canada and the first snow fall is always an adventure which includes washing her back and face in it –  he gets rather vocal about it barking and growling and snorting. People driving by always stop and watch and most often say “that’s funny, thanks for making my day”.”

Cutest

Name: Saya
Breed: Micro pit
IG: @Saya_sugarbutt
Fun Fact: “Its a little cooler in the mornings, so she gets to wear her pjs. She enjoys chasing squirrels and cuddling. She was brought in to the ER to be euthanized. Instead she was surrendered and living her life as a model, someone’s entire world (me) and pet influencer. Also, just being her loveable self. Saya. Interesting fact: her nickname Sugarbutt was because before her surgery, we sat her in a bowl of sugar (she had a rectal prolapse)”
