Pet Connection: Meet Roxanne and Gumby

Face-boxing, barking, leash-chewing, jumping and mouthing: nobody in the world would get away with one of these behaviors, let alone all of them, let alone ALL of them at once and on live…

Pet Connection: Meet Clark

When someone you love disappoints you, it can be tempting to give up on love. That could have so easily happened to Clark, a ten-or-so-year-old black lab who was found wandering the streets…
