Lynne Washington of Sherwood Park, Alta., writes: “This is our nine-year-old dalmatian, Nova. My husband, Jim, taught him to pick and eat raspberries, so Nova is in the raspberry patch with Jim helping out every summer. Unfortunately, not many of his berries make it into the bucket! Nova is also a pet therapy dog; he volunteers at the Grey Nuns Community Hospital in Edmonton, visiting both the palliative care and emergency departments. He also sits with elementary school kids and listens to them read—he’s a great listener!” Have a great shot of your family’s pet? Send it along and it may appear on this page!
