Willow spends her days with Kristie Gillis, communications specialist with Student Health and Wellness. 

Name: Willow. She was named after Willow Park, the community we called home in Calgary when we got her as a puppy.

Nicknames: Low, Willow Pillow, Pillow

Species/breed: Cocker spaniel 

Age: Almost 5 

Fave food: Willow loves veggies, in particular, carrots and yellow bell peppers. She also loves Dentabones! During road trips, Willow usually gets treated with a Puppuccino from Starbucks or a Timbit. 

Special tricks: She can sniff out any Chuck It ball, no matter where you hide it! She still can’t properly fetch them (refuses to bring them back to you), but she can find them no problem! 

Best quality: Willow is the happiest dog! She has a superpower for putting people in a cheerful mood. She is also a pro snuggler, with the softest fur, and always knows when someone needs a good cuddle.

Social media, if available: N/A
