Arlington Pet of the Week: Cali

Becky's Pet Care

This week’s Arlington Pet of the Week is Cali, a Golden Lab, who recently moved to Clarendon from Richmond. This little lady loves fall and jumping in leaves, and while she might be considered middle-aged, Cali still thinks she’s a puppy.

Here’s what one of Cali’s owners had to say:

Cali is a 7-year-old Golden Lab (Golden Retriever/Labrador mix). She is fairly new to the Clarendon area. She grew up in Richmond, Virginia with her owner and recently made the trek north. She loves walking around and exploring all Arlington has to offer.

Cali loves to go to the dog park in Clarendon, play in the water and chase down other dogs. She likes to think of herself as an Alpha dog but is secretly a lover. Her favorite season is by far fall. She loves jumping around in leaves and feeling the cooler air.

Cali recently turned seven and still thinks she is a puppy. She loves to spend time with her best friend cuddling on the couch, watching football and playing with her toys. She is a big fan of Arlington so far, and is going to be sticking around for a while.
