I am so sorry to hear about Pete. I have fond memories of how my dogs felt so calm when he was there to help Bobbie. I had a dog named Amos who would shake when he arrived at Pampered paws …as soon as he heard Petes voice he was so calm and run from the waiting area to where Pete was. Prayers to you Bobbie and Family.
