Meet Miley Fieldston, a 14 year-old Havanese who was born in Queens on January 25th 2008. She is an energetic dog who spends her days barking at squirrels and her fellow Murdoch Woods neighborhood dog friends. She usually follows her barking adventures with a nice long nap while waiting for her three younger sisters, Kayla (12), Samara (10) and Skylar (8) to get home from school. She loves to pose for family pictures (often sneaking her way in the back of them). Her favorite foods are American cheese, turkey and challah! In the evenings you can find Miley watching TV and snuggling with her family on the couch. Miley has many nicknames including Shmie Pie, Milita and the little Schwave. The Fieldstons are so lucky to have Miley as part of their family!

Meet Robbie (age 6) and Zuri (age 1), two aussiedoodles who are super silly, love to play, take walks and will do almost anything for a treat. This dynamic duo can be found at home sitting on a living room bench whimpering as friends pass by, vigorously barking at a wandering squirrel or just pondering life's many questions. They think that they have made some progress on solving climate change and advocate that more humans work from home in order to conserve energy, reduce carbon emissions and increase play time / walks with pets.
When not working on challenging problems Robbie and Zuri like to be wherever their people are. They especially enjoy meal prep time when they receive fresh vegetables, and cuddling with family while watching television. They are great office mates and are frequently right by their parents' feet providing warmth. Every now and then when Dad starts playing the harmonica these two are close by accompanying with their howling. If you are interested in their entertainment they will gladly work for treats.

Quinn is a four year old Vizsla who lives up to the title of a “Velcro Dog.” You can find Quinn walking around Colonial Acres or sunbathing in her backyard. Quinn loves to swim and in the pool one may confuse her for a baby fish. Speaking of fish, one of Quinn’s favorite snacks is crunchy cod skin treats, along with apples, mango, carrots, cucumber and strawberries. She definitely has the best nutrition of anyone in the Wise crew. Quinn loves to visit her cousin Piper on Long Island and playing with her best friend Ernie Singer. She also loves making a cameo appearance in her Dad’s Zooms. When she is not running full speed ahead, you can find her hanging on the couch watching TV. Quinn LOVES to make new friends so if you see her, be sure to stop and say hello to your new Vizsla friend!

Meet Hank! He is a four year old yellow lab mix who was adopted by the Schwartz family almost a year ago. He was found living on the streets of Louisiana, but now he loves the streets of Scarsdale. You might spot Hank playing fetch by the pond in Crane Berkeley, walking around Fox Meadow and Edgewood, and driving around town with his family (he loves to sit up front).
Hank loves treats but also eats pencils and stuffed animals when given the opportunity! He is a friendly dog who brings a lot of energy to the Schwartz's home, although he does enjoy winding down at the end of the day by listening to Amazon music's "Meditation" station! Hank's siblings, Jake, Carrie and Anna, are all in love with him.

Meet Buck Beak and Francesca, our first featured birds! They are the proud pets of Fox Meadow fourth grader, Ada Williams. Buck Beak was just a baby when she joined the family this past summer. When Ada thought Buck Beak was lonely, she got Francesca to keep Buck Beak company.
Ada says the birds play nicely with each other and get along well. They chirp each morning and it makes her day! Ada's father keeps the birds company while she is at school or at an activity.
Ada loves having such unique pets, and Pet of the Week is grateful to feature them!
