Octavia-The fairest dog in the land
Greetings, humans! I'm Octavia, the fairest lady in the land. It'll take some time for you to win my hand, but if you bring me your best snacks and allow me to open up at my own pace, you'll see what a prize my heart really is. I adore my people more than anything, and I can't get enough snuggles and love. I'm also a scholar: I know sit, paw, other paw, and I'm learning down & the rules of fetch! I would love to learn even more with you to help boost my confidence and teach me to not be so jumpy! I would do best if my family consisted of older kids, and I may be interested in a canine partner, but we'd have to meet first to make sure it's a good match. So if you want to come compete for my hand, then come down to the shelter to meet me today!

How the Valley’s Seasons and Gardens Inspire Pattern Designer Jen Hewett
Printmaker, surface designer, and textile artist Jen Hewett loves to spend time in her garden. As a formerly full-time San Francisco-based artist, she has found one of the benefits of moving to Hudson was having a garden of her own for the first time since she was 17. “When I bought my house, I knew that gardening was what I wanted to do in the spring and summer … I think of gardening as a creative practice, and it’s also a way of rooting and grounding yourself to a place,” she says. Her love of plants is an inspiration in most of her textiles and prints, which are botanically-based.
