Betsy

Meet Betsy, who just celebrated her 9th birthday on New Year's Eve. Betsy is a female Gordon Setter, owned by Jennifer Melichar of Ellicott City, MD. See Betsy's resume, below.

"Hi! My name is Betsy. As you probably already know, I'm a very active girl even though I have retired. My mom says that because I'm very special to her, she wants me to have only the very best things to eat. That's why when KC & Tynee told me about the special treats their mom was making, I just had to have some. I just love Aunt Jeni's PUPPlements 'cause they're so tasty. Mom says they're good for me too but I don't care...I like them anyway."
