CHASE
Chase is our 4-year-old husky, who joined our family as a puppy. He will play fetch in the hallway if you like, but he is also content laying down all day long. He is known to cuddle with our patients for hours in the infusion suite, and he will happily accompany you during your exam, or stay in the lobby if you prefer. Beware, he may be the softest dog you’ve ever met.
SHAYA
Shaya is our newest addition to the office. She joined our family on New Year’s Eve 2019, shortly after Lailah (who you met, if you were a patient before 2020) passed away. We rescued Shaya from the Everett Animal Shelter, and she has fit right into the the Bunin and Rheumcenter family. She is a loving puppy who will chase a ball – or playfully wrestle with Chase – forever, but is also content to snuggle up to you, roll over and beg you to pet her belly for hours on end. Fun fact: Her birth name is a mish-mash of our two previous huskies: Shadow and Lailah!
