Trenton is a small but friendly peaceful town. Everyone is so caring the other day I was bringing in my bags from work and a gentleman neighbor offered to help me bring them in. The community, the people in it they care about your pet's well-being. when someone is sick, I noticed that the resident here reach out to see what they can do to help.. Just little things that means so much to an individual or family members. there is a lot of love in this town..
