What's your pet's favorite thing to eat? Street pizza (pizza laying on the street.)
Does your pet have a neighborhood animal friend they like to play with? Murphy and Nina (of Sydney & Ryan), and Llew (of Madaline & John). He loves playing with his doggy pals (maybe a little too loudly!)
What is your pet's favorite thing about living in the East End? Chicken bones and squirrel carcasses!
Got anything else Lookout readers should know about your pet? Zucco is 5-years-old (we think). He loves walking around at Chimborazo and Jefferson Parks and spending time with his older brother Mason, the Amazon parrot. If you see Zucco walking around Church Hill, come say hi!
