Romo, age 3
Pembroke Welsh Corgi
Locust Street
Hello. I’m Romo, and I’m a rescue Corgi. My breeding makes me a natural herder, and I like routines and tasks. My favorite thing is mock battles with my master, complete with fake growling and rolling around. I can be a little bossy, such as when I tell my family they’re staying up past bedtime, …

My name is Otis, and I am new to the neighborhood. My best bud, Ellie, a 2-year old dachshund, and I are adjusting to our new home. Stairs were new to us, but I think we’ve got them down. I love going up two steps at a time, but the coming down …

Move over, Shirley. A new duo is in town – Laverne and Billie. Billie Stafford, a retired hairdresser referred to as “Momma Chicken” by those who know her, is proud of all her chicks. (By “chicks,” we don’t mean kids, but actual chickens.) However, she admits, one chicken, Laverne, is her favorite.
Besides the physical similarities between human and fowl …

Outsiders might think it strange, a lanky, young man with a blond crewcut walking down the sidewalk with a giant turkey at the end of a leash. But for residents of this upscale Memorial neighborhood, local “bird whisperer” Zach Marnitz is a familiar sight.
Big birds, little birds. Exotic birds, backyard birds. Yellow birds or blue birds. They’re all unique …

‘Ello! My name is Francis. I have a short snout with a prominent nose fold, a curly tail and a belly that bulges when it is full, which, in my opinion, isn’t nearly often enough. Right now I weigh 48 pounds. My family knew that I was going to be a big …

Mico, age 6 months
Labrador Retriever
Deal Street
My name is Mico, and my favorite toy is my rubber cupcake, but I also love sticks and empty water bottles. I’m friendly, well mannered and playful. Overall I’m a very good puppy. So good, in fact, that my Dad trusted me enough to leave me alone inside one day. When he …

Cocker Spaniel/Boxer mix
Tartan Lane
Hi. I’m Daisy. I am a one-of-a-kind cocker spaniel-boxer mix. My favorite thing to do in the summer is to go swimming in my grandma’s pool with my favorite kids, Abby and Jacob. Sometimes they say I am like a fish, I swim so well! I also love to chase squirrels …

Aston, age 2
Pomeranian
Beech Street
Hi. I’m Aston, the sole pet of my household – and also its honorary second vacuum cleaner. I just celebrated my second birthday, but I don’t feel a day over puppyhood. I really love food and meeting new people. No offense, but if I had to choose between the two, I’d pick food, paws down. There’s a new …

Milky, age 11 months
Golden Retriever/Chow mix
Queensloch Drive
Hi. My name is Milky. I guess my dad likes Milky Way candy bars. My siblings and I were rescued, and I stayed in a foster home until I charmed 5-year-old Morgan into taking me home with her. The doctor said I would be a little more than 40 pounds when …

College St., Whipple Dr., Pine St.
People see our curly fur coats and fall in love instantly. We’re lucky that the three of us – siblings born a year ago in Cleveland, Texas – were adopted by loving families living right here in Bellaire.
