May Pet of the Month: Snowy

My name is Snowy—an appropriate name, don’t you think? I am a 12-year old Maltese who came to my family when I was 9 months old.

I was a little jealous when my brother Leo was Pet of the Month last year, but It’s my turn now! Leo may bark at every animal on the TV, but I am much more vocal. I make lots of noise snoring, even when I’m not sleeping. Sometimes you can even hear me in the other room.

Since I’m a little older, I’m not as playful as I used to be but I do have my moments of running around the house. My favorite thing to do is hang out with my Mom. She loves to talk to me in full sentences and as crazy as it seems, I do understand her! My favorite thing she says at 10 o’clock every night is, “Do you want frozen sting beans?” I get so excited for my nightly treat!

This past year, I wasn’t acting right. Luckily Dr. Niedermiller figured out that all my panting and drinking tons of water was due to something called Cushing’s Disease. I look and feel so much better now that I’m taking medication to control it. I go in for regular monitoring, but that’s OK since my Mom knows I’m so much more comfortable.

I’m so happy to be MVS Animal Hospital’s Pet of the Month! Yeah for me!
