My Pet Pal: JD and Chico

January 21, 2018 11:00 pm • Last Updated: January 22, 2018 11:10 am

This is JD and Chico. These two, although very different in personalities, are best buds. Chico (pug) is high energy, in your face, and a goofball, while JD (mutt) is calm and laid-back. Both dogs, especially JD, are very protective and loving toward their little sister Avery, born 3/9/17.
