Vancouver Courier's pet of the week

March 18, 2015

Name: Spartacus (Sparty)           

Owner: Trish Bugera      

Breed: Jack Russell terrier

Age: Two years                

Been together: 22 months

Characteristics: Spartacus enjoys hunting rats and taking long walks in Pacific Spirit Park. Sparty’s favourite people are children and he is known to start getting a little wiggy around 3 p.m. in the afternoon when the kids are on their way home from school. He is rather adept at stealing unattended sandwiches from the coffee table and is most receptive to meaty treats. Dislikes include vacuum cleaners and being forced to wear festive Christmas outfits.

The Courier wants to include your animal companion in Pet of the Week. Please send a clear photo of your pet — humans are welcome to be in photos as well — their breed, name, age, how long you’ve been together and any special attributes or idiosyncrasies they might have to [email protected] and we’ll publish as many as possible in print and online.
