Bertie is, quite possibly, the cutest beagle ever. While others may win big New York City dog shows, Bertie is secure enough in his looks not to need a pageant title. His signature colour is red and he enjoys long walks on the beach, garbage and sleeping in on rainy days. He dislikes small children, cilantro and people who wear too much perfume. He can be found walking his owner in the West End along the Seawall or lying on top of the pillows on his queen-sized bed until it’s time for his human to go to bed.

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 sthomas@vancourier.com and we’ll publish as many as possible in print and online.
