Olivia Vessell of Pevely submitted this photo of Levi, her 2-year-old Australian cattle dog, for Pet Spot. It was taken at Halloween 2025.
“He is not fond of wearing a cowboy hat, but he does look quite dapper,” Vessell said.
Levi is usually on the go.
“He is very energetic,” she said. “He loves to play. He likes to go to the park and to doggie day care.”
Not everyone appreciates when Levi gives them his attention, Vessell said.
“He loves to drag around our cats, playing with them,” she said. “They’re not fond of it. He doesn’t hurt them.”
She said Levi is friendly.
“He’s got a good personality,” she said. “He loves people most of the time. He loves kids. He gets along with other pets.”
