Arlington Pet of the Week: Karma

Meet well traveled Karma, Arlington’s latest Pet of the Week. This 13-year-old Old English Sheepdog/Bearded Collie mix grew up in Seattle, but now calls Arlington home.

Here’s what Karma’s mom had to say about her travels.

Karma is well traveled. She has frolicked in the beaches of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, hiked in the Olympic National Forest, climbed sand dunes in White Sands National Monument and looked for aliens in Roswell, New Mexico.

She has visited the grassy knoll and book repository in Dallas, hiked in Smoky Mountain National Park, learned about the Salem witch trials, enjoyed the picturesque Nantucket lighthouses and so much more.

Karma has even lived in Beijing where she climbed the Great Wall of China! Although she has slowed down with age, Karma still loves walking the neighborhood in North Arlington and having adventures meeting new friends. The sun may be setting, but she continues to brighten the lives of everyone she encounters.

Want your pet to be considered for the Arlington Pet of the Week? Email [email protected] with a 2-3 paragraph bio and at least 3-4 horizontally-oriented photos of your pet. Please don’t send vertical photos — they don’t fit in our photo galleries!
