The little dog always stops right in front of the ATM, looks up expectantly, and then sits down. The staff never seems surprised, just smiles and pets it gently. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Does he get a treat after?’ A nearby neighbor chuckled, ‘No, but he gets a lot of attention—and so does Vancity Bank!’
