Chewie (Pug)
Owner: Dr. Mark Gustavson
“He has to always be touching someone and unifies the kids (the one thing they all share is their strong love for Chewie) and he brings their softest side out every single day. We adore him immensely!! Dr. Gus did not want Chewy but has developed a really strong bond with him. Of course. He loves his daily off-leash walks on the golf course. He has a favorite toy, a wolf stuffed animal that is almost the same size as him. He won’t go to bed without his nightly Greenie.” ~Katie, Wife of Dr. Gustavson

The only trick Benelli knows is how to find new ways to get out of the yard and explore the woods, however she does have a knack for shed hunting (deer antlers). They both love to pass the time getting fresh air while watching the chickens out in the barnyard.
