She's not actually a puppy, although you might think this pint-sized sweetie-pie is at first.
Emily Welker,

Eevie might be small in stature, but she’s probably the biggest flirt in the entire F-M metro area. Even though she’s never met you before, she’ll likely greet you with enthusiastic tail wags, an offer for a hug, even a kiss or a friendly little nibble on your chin. She’s a mix of blue heeler/Australian cattle dog, and she’s got…

Pet Connection: Meet Jude

Remember to let him into your heart.
Emily Welker,

Since we only have an hour on the Morning Show instead of our usual two hours, this week’s Pet Connection is a short one. But that’s okay, because this week’s pet is a very short horse. His name is Jude and he’s dang near irresistible. He’s saddle-trained, and very bright. However, he was left pretty much to his own devices…
