We've enjoyed another month of getting to know some of the friendly Pets of Dalhousie who have brought us joy with reports of their special tricks and pictures of their sweet faces.
If you missed any of our profiles during the month, or just can't get enough, read on below for links to all of the animals we have featured. You'll find a horse, an axolotl, some rats, lots of happy dogs and cats, and more.
