Celebrating the people, pets, and stories that make Jamaica Plain special.
🐾 September JP Pets of the Month
The Jamaica Plain Neighborhood Council Outreach Committee is excited to introduce JP Pet of the Month, a new community feature celebrating the pets and people who make Jamaica Plain such a special place.
For September, we’re kicking things off with two wonderful Jamaica Plain dogs: Scout and Ruvé!
🐶 Meet Scout!
Scout is Melissa Hamel’s dog and one of our very first JP Pets of the Month!
📸 Photo coming soon!
More about Scout coming soon! Check back to learn more about Scout and what makes her such a special member of the Jamaica Plain community. 🐾
🐶 Meet Ruvé!
Ruvé is a lovable 4-year-old Great Dane with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This gentle giant loves attention, spending time with her family, and proving that Great Danes really are oversized lap dogs!
Ruvé is proud to help kick off the JPNC’s JP Pet of the Month spotlight. 🐾
