Welcome to another edition of Central Oregon Pets! In tough times, our animals bring us that loving feeling, no matter what is happening out there in the wide world. And with 2020 being as turbulent as it has, we’re stoked to bring this issue to you.

Check out a heartwarming tale of the heroes who helped evacuated pets find their humans during the recent Oregon wildfires. Also, read how pets have helped locals find a piece of happiness during the pandemic. Hear about the hardworking search and rescue and other working dogs of the region. Get up to speed on essential oils for dogs and cats, and get the story of a woman who talks to animals—and the sometimes-wacky requests they make to their humans.

Thanks for reading!
