Bandit

Bandit is a 3 year old black Labrador Retriever. When at the office, he spends most of his days in Dr. Petrino’s back office sleeping. He gets up on occasion to greet Dr. Petrino and other staff members. Occasionally, if the office door is left open, he will sneak out to see his best bud Seeley. He may be prone to barking at new patients, please understand this is just his way of saying hi and that he would like some attention.

Outside the office, he loves going for walks, hikes and playing in any water he can find.
