We look forward to bringing our pets to the new CPS facility for continued veterinary care. Bill and Janet Hansen Lee Lee and Rondo, seen at right lounging
Rondo is an affectionate boy who loves to run and play. He is a wonderful frisbee player and very athletic as he chases, leaps, and catches even the difficult throws.
