UPDATE: A heartwarming story has emerged as Laina, a rescue hound, has been crowned this week’s “Pet of the Week” by Newsweek. Her delightful obsession with laundry baskets has captured the hearts of many, just in time for National Dog Month.
With her quirky habit of lounging in laundry baskets, Laina has been a source of joy for her owner, Patti Generale. Generale shared via email, “She is always found sitting in one. Otherwise, she’s cozying up next to you if you have food. She’s very food-motivated and has brought us a lot of joy.” This charming hound’s antics not only brighten Generale’s days but also resonate with dog lovers everywhere.
This week’s finalists also showcase the diverse personalities of our furry friends. Among them is Harvey and Coco, two 7-year-old Cavachons owned by Vicki Peacock. Peacock initially aimed for a male dog but couldn’t resist adopting a female from the same litter. She describes them as sweet-natured, yet mischievous. “Harvey is the leader and thinks he’s much bigger than he is,” Peacock stated. Their playful spirit and loving companionship have been invaluable to Peacock, who appreciates the laughter they bring to her life.
Next on the list is a lively 1-year-old named Daisy, lovingly referred to by her owner, Karen Garcia, as a “Rotten Rottsky.” This mischievous Rottweiler and Siberian Husky mix emerged from an unexpected litter, capturing Garcia’s heart with her unique and dominating personality. “She has a humorous side that keeps us entertained,” Garcia remarked.
Finally, we have Pierre, a 1-year-old French bulldog whose owner, Jamie High, can’t thank him enough for the joy he brings. High described Pierre as a handful but noted, “He helped me through a very tough time in my life, and I’m grateful every day.” His playful nature and loving spirit make him a cherished companion.
