Whiskey Blue is that special dog who knows how to lean into you for affection, whether she is standing, seated, or laying down.  Her favorite place to be is smack dab in the middle of any hugs or snuggles. .  She brings the (usually) mellow ying to Chili Pepper’s high energy yang.  Whiskey is widely recognized since that dog in the “The Little Rascals” looks a lot like her…and she’s cool with it.

Chili Pepper is like no other…she keeps the Wingspan office full of energy and reminds us that when it’s quiet, there is probably trouble brewing.  Her two modes are 500 mph or sleeping, and she is learning from her sister how to be a good snuggler and movie watcher.  Just don’t forget to throw her some popcorn!
