Shamrock is a very striking 1-year-old Golden Retriever. He's been with his family since he was just a pup. He can be seen hanging around Paul Revere Park -- his favorite place in Charlestown. When he's not there, he likes to sleep and snack, most recently under the Christmas tree. Elizabeth Rowan

Sadie is Labradoodle who is also 1 year-old. She was adopted from a breeder in the western part of the state -- and was the last of her litter left. She works sometimes at Durty Harry's, where her favorite thing to do is people watch and play with customers. She's recently developed a little trick: If you stop playing with her, she'll take whatever toy she's been using and hide it -- and try to get you to fetch it. Pretty smart for a pup.

Here's Gracie, a 2-year-old Labrador Retriever. You can usually find her outside of Zume's, wrestling with owner John Doherty or inside Durty Harry's, wrestling with Harry the dog. Both guys are her sweethearts. She is obedient, smart, cuddly and sweet. Perfect in every way except for her paralyzing fear of snowmen.
