Pet of the Week – Briggs

By Haley Mitchell Gdowin 

“My name is Briggs and although I am an inside dog, I enjoy getting outside and making my rounds around the farm with dad to make sure everything is in order. I’m a chocolate lab and I am almost three years old. I love food and will eat anything, but Vienna sausages are my favorite treat.”

According to his owners, Michael Jay and Morgan Norman of Luverne, Briggs loves to play with his squeaky toys and really enjoys a good game of fetch. He also loves relaxing on the couch and naps. Briggs has a brand new human baby sister named Isla Brooke and he can’t wait until she is big enough to play. 

“Pet of the Week” and the quarterly feature, “Pet of the Season,” are sponsored by Crenshaw Animal Clinic and Dr. Alethea Gammage of Luverne – (334) 335-5309. Crenshaw Animal Clinic is a full-service small animal clinic that provides comprehensive health care for pets. They offer a full range of services to help keep pets happy and healthy- including vaccine administration, routine preventive care, wellness exams, dental care, allergy care, flea/tick/heartworm control, parasite control, routine surgical procedures, microchipping, early detection, and treatment of a wide range of conditions and diseases with in-clinic diagnostics, ophthalmology, spay and neuter, and more. During the quarterly “Pet of the Season” contest, animals featured in “Pet of the Week” will go head to head, and the animal with the most votes will win a personalized prize package from Crenshaw Animal Clinic valued at $250. At the end of the year, all quarterly winners will compete for “Crenshaw County Pet of the Year” and the grand prize.
