Petburbia: Sugar the Vibrant Velcro Umbrella Cockatoo

Minnesota Pet Portraits Birds


​"My flock includes all kinds of creatures!"


Suzanne Sugar-Beaker's namesake from the 1986 TV show "Designing Women" always made an entrance, and she certainly wore some flashy outfits. This Umbrella Cockatoo everyone calls Sugar can also put on an impressive display when she raises her crest of striking white head feathers.
Sugar shares her home with 5 other parrots, 2 dogs, and 2 cats. Often called "velcro birds," cockatoos form intense personal bonds, and Sugar shows her affections with frequent cuddles.

She enjoys traveling with her human companion, Karen, to pet events and educational classes around the Twin Cities. Occasionally she lends a helping beak at the avian boarding house her mom owns.  Sugar's specialty is cleaning feathers with a relaxing neck massage.

Petburbia: Luci the Teensy Tenacious Teacup Toy Poodle

"Attitudes within the dog are larger than they appear."

"What is it?!" said Glenn when he saw the adoption photo of Luci, the teacup poodle. Long, scraggly fur jutting out in all directions gave Luci the appearance of a wild rodent.
Minnesota Pet Portraits Toy Poodle
At only 1 pound, 15 ounces, she's smaller than the average guinea pig. The really shocking thing is she's full grown. She turns 3 years old in November.

Despite her ultra-petite size, Luci is 100% dog.  Frenetic energy drives this tiny clown into some hysterically funny situations, like when she clamps onto her big brother's ear, and he drags her across the kitchen floor like the world's smallest mop.

And although she could fit in your shirt pocket, don't think you could forget Luci there. She grumbles under her breath and mumbles "nerm, nerm, nerm" to let you know she's not to be taken lightly.

Petburbia: Ace the Naughty Nibbler Keeshond Puppy Dog

"I love your sandals. I bet they taste yummy!"

At 12 weeks old, Ace is just beginning to discover the big bold world and all that his big fluffy paws can do.

This lucky Keeshond pup has already flown on an airplane. He's met and played with dogs of all shapes and sizes. He's even learned to give high fives.
Ace has an unlimited supply of energy. Sometimes that can turn destructive, like the time he shredded Tracy's sandals. Sometimes that energy can make everything right in the world, like when he throws those fluffy paws around your neck for snuggles at the end of the day.
