BUN BUN--RIP
Bun Bun is our clinic mascot. He came to us when his previous home could no longer keep him. Bun Bun helps oversee daily operations here at PVH, and he also helps clients and staff relax with some bunny cuddles. Unfortunately, BUN BUN passed on this summer. The clinic seems emptier without him.
