Our Pack

Zack is a programmer extraordinaire. His language of choice is Python. He loves programming and is very big into games including: Magic the Gathering, Brawl Stars, Wyrmspan, and Terraforming Mars.

Ollie and Luna specialize in chasing squirrels, taking naps, chewing chew toys (and occasionally laptop cables), and being good pups. They are both partial to Nornir.

Jupiter is all dog. She loves to be near her people and loves her food (not necessarily in that order). She likes the water, the beach, retrieving her water kong, and meeting new people. She is categorized as "an aggressive chew breed" and is living up to that grouping.
