Meet Our Mascot, Patty!
Hi! My name is Patty and I'm an English Cream Golden Retriever born on January 20, 2022. I was like any normal puppy, except my right eye was swollen, blind, and very painful when I was born. I was brought to Dr. Calpeno by my parents' breeder, since I couldn't be sold to a forever home in my condition. I was very lucky, since my new home was just in reach, with the Happy Tails practice manager, Sam! She and her husband have been loving and caring for me since I was just 8 weeks old. By the time I was 6 months old, I finally got my surgery to remove my eye and it was such a relief! Everyone at Happy Tails takes great care of me so I decided that I can be their mascot! I want to show everyone that my happy tail is all thanks to Happy Tails Veterinary Hospital and their amazing team!
