Our Pet of the Week is Rudy who belongs to Joyce Joyner of McDonough. “His name is short for Rudolph Valentino because he was born on February 14. His breed is Great Pyrenees. He lives in McDonough with his owner but is loved by anyone who meets him.

People can’t resist petting his soft, fluffy head, but then he won’t let them stop petting him. He’ll keep forcing himself under their hands! In the photo, he is lounging in the shade of a cherry tree. He is right outside of his domain he created under the deck. You’ll notice there is very little grass left in the yard. Apparently dirt is cooler than lawn. He is a ‘cool’ dog in every way,” said Joyce.
