    Submitted by: Cooper , age 10
    Pet Name: Izzy

    Cooper says: Izzy keeps an eye on you! Izzy is a 1 year-old Lab/Poodle/Pomeranian mix from Wisconsin. We got her from a rescue group called Tailwaggers 911. I think getting pets from shelters is the best way to help animals.

    Pet Name: Angel

    Matt says: Angel is an 8-week old kitten from California. When the neighbor's cat had kittens they took one look at her and named her Angel. She loves to climb on everything and her fur is so soft. She loves to eat kitten food. She has a big brother who looks a lot like her (white with black spots and very soft and furry).

    Pet Name: Sparky

    Emily says: Sparky is a leopard gecko. My dads friend had too many pets and he was not taking very good care of Sparky. Sparky got his name from his spots that look like sparks. Sparky can play dead and lie in my hands like a baby. I love Sparky's personality most. Sparky's favorite food is super worms. Sparky will do anything for me. I also trained him.

    Pet Name: Romeo

    Brooke says: Romeo is a mixed breed, part Boxer, part German Shepard, part Labrador ??? and he's 6-month old from Georgia. I adopted him from our friends who found him roaming around their house one day. They couldn't keep him since they have 2 dogs of their own. Nobody knows exactly where he came from. Since he was roaming he became Romeo, and we think according to the vet that he was born on Valentines Day. He can sit, give you one of his paws then the other, stands on hind legs, and retrieves sticks and balls on command and he's loving, caring and loyal. His fave food is peanut butter. Since I've always wanted a puppy I was so psyched when he joined our family.

    Pet Name: Cappuccino

    Anya says: Cappuccino is 2 year-old and lives with me in New Jersey. He is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. We got him in Pennsylvania at a dog breeders house that I found out about on the computer. I named him Cappuccino because he's so hipper and has so much energy like coffee. He's also the same color as cappuccino since he is brown with white spots. He always runs in little circles when my dad is about to place down his dinner. It does get annoying sometimes, but I still love him. What he loves to eat is Raw Hide bones, which are raw beef bones. Just so you know, he has a sister whose name is Butterscotch, and they love each other! My family loves to travel, so when we leave them for a day or so, they're not lonely.

    Pet Name: Buster

    Anessa says: Buster is a 2 year old Long-Hair Chihuahua from Indiana. We got him from a breeder somewhere in indy. We voted for his name. He's special because he knows when your upset and he tries to comfort you. He hates squirrels and he'll chase them off. He knows basic things like sit, down, up, shake, and other things he does on his own. And his favorite food is eggs. The thing I love most about Buster is he loves to cuddle.

    Pet Name: Capone

    Carolyn says: Capone is 7 weeks old Pit Bull Terrier from Pennsylvania. We got him from a neighbor. My mom thought of the name Capone because when we went camping we met a very well behaved dog named Capone. So we used the name. Capone can sit, stay, shake your hand and catch a treat in his mouth. I love to sleep with him! He's a perfect pillow! Capone loves chicken, chips, peanut butter and hot dogs the most! I really love Capone!
