The Roanoker - March/April 2015 - 49

The imperial Maverick loves his neighbors, pursues the varmints.

Best Doggie Advice: Exercise your dog daily! A happy,
tired dog is a healthy, well-behaved dog.

MAVERICK
Breed: Yellow tabby
Gets His Checkups at: Veterinarians to Cats
Favorite Outside Activity: Controlling the varmint
population.
Claim to Fame: Follows the Golden Rule better than
most humans (including me). Loves all his neighbors.
Visits several regularly. Helps them garden. Puts a smile
on many faces.

Bailey is more prone to relaxation than tricks.

note: Bentley actually bit my Mother-in-law.
Best trick: Bentley can roll over... not too exciting, but
better than Bailey who only knows the command sit
and maybe shake.
Favorite treat: Rawhide...they will chew for hours.
Best Doggie Advice: Make sure you know what you
are doing when potty training. Bentley was our first
indoor dog and we failed miserably.
Groomer: Mostly Doris's Basement Doggie Parlor. Jerry
doesn't pay to get his hair cut (there isn't any there to
cut!), so why should we pay for dog haircuts?!

Favorite Treat: Salmon from Fresh Market
Denise and Marc Koff's best cat advice: Are you
kiddin'? He is in total control.

BENTLEY & BAILEY
Breed, age: Maltese. Bentley (9); Bailey (5)
Master of: Jerry & Doris Tice
Got the vaccinations at: Furry Friends
Favorite place outside: My neighbors across the
street - they are my dogs' adopted grandparents who
dog sit while we are away and
check on them during the day.
Bentley and Bailey protect and
mark their yard as well - their
second home.

Bentley bit the mother-in-law!
THE

R OANOKER.COM

The background: Bentley was
purchased from a local breeder.
We got Bailey at 18 months from
a lady whose granddaughter had
allergies which doesn't make
sense because they are suppose
to be hypoallergenic dogs. I
believe it was because she can
be aggressive with strangers
and has bitten one of my other
neighbors. But after 10 minutes
of being around you, she is the
sweetest dog ever...everyone
wants to take her home. Side

Lil' Girl began life in a dumpster; now luxuriates on the bed.

LIL' GIRL
Breed: Crazy Black Cat (domestic), age 5 years
Master of: Julie Mayer
Favorite place: woven laundry basket from the
Farmers Market
The background: Lil' Girl is a rescue from the local
SPCA; the only survivor of a litter found in a dumpster.
Best trick: Lil' Girl will play "fetch", just like a dog -
her favorite item? Ponytail elastics or hair ties.
Favorite toy: Catnip mice from Nature's Emporium
Background: The SPCA has been extremely helpful
and full of information. I remember when they told
me that black cats are known for having a lot of
personality...boy, was the SPCA right! I
