Felicks Adsit

My wife Emily and I adopted Felicks in December of 2018. We had high hopes of Felicks becoming a therapy dog for patients in need of a little extra TLC during their treatments. However, we joke that his high energy level and strong desire to eat everything (and we do mean everything) leaves most people who meet him in need of therapy, or at least a nap! Maybe someday….
