October Pet of the Month - Edwin

This month's VPNA Pet of the Month is Edwin! This adorable pup will be receiving free passes to Barking Hound Village from our neighbors, Lisa & Jeremy Jones, who have lived in Vickery Place for 16 years.

Edwin is a 10-year-old husky mix. He was adopted from a shelter during Will's college years at SMU and has lived his entire life in Dallas. Edwin moved to the M streets in November 2024 after we got married and bought our first home together. He loves living here and watching over the neighborhood through our front windows. Edwin sometimes goes by Eddie, Freddie or Franklin, but he'll answer to anything if you have food. His favorites include Cheez-Its, bacon, and Burger House tots. Eddie also loves stopping by the treat box at the corner of Glencoe and Vickery. Edwin is an only child, and it shows--just ask us about our VEG bills. He's the definition of spoiled, but we wouldn't have it any other way. 
-Will & Caitlin McNamara (Willis Ave)
