Tarot
Tarot, aka Chini, is a Chocolate Labrador Retriever, and the wiggliest girl you’d ever meet. Tarot lives to do the thing. She's an up-and-coming sports dog who loves swimming, eating, and playing frisbee. Don't ever throw her toy or she’ll never leave you alone. Literally. She is the epitome of a lab, so watch your hands if you try to give her a treat.

Jeepers
Jeepers, straight from Canada, is a Belgian Malinois, and my spicy puppy (I thought Canadians were supposed to be nice?). She’s learning all there is to be my high level agility competition dog! While she can really be ON for agility she knows just how to be a perfect couch dog as well. You can almost always find her staring at the oven handle where a perfectly placed hand towel is, just waiting to rip it off and thrash around with it. I hope each and every one of you never has to hear her screech.

Mr. Mac CGCA CGCU RATO TKI RN ACT J1
Mac
The Mac man or the Snack man is a Blue Heeler/Border Collie Mix. Mac is a puppy mill dog with unknown genetics, but through training has turned into a pleasant man. Mac lives to play Barn Hunt, rally with his dog friends, sleep in the sunshine, hike the trails of Utah, and yell at his mom for more pets. If you ever find yourself with him staring up at you with his ears flat on his head you may have to ask yourself “Is this my mac moment?”.

River
River is my floofy mess, he’s a big mix of a bunch of breeds- including border collie and Alaskan malamute. He is a talker and is not afraid to tell you what’s on his mind. River has earned his Community Canine and CGC Urban titles, as well as his trick dog advanced (TKA) and a dock junior title (DJ)
His favorite human is his mom, he loves carbs (code for he’s a bread thief), loves to swim in the dirtiest water he can find, and his favorite toy is a stuffed dinosaur.

Muttpack's Forever Changing Seasons CGCA CGCU TKA RN
Forest
Forest, aka Forie, is a forever puppy, she’s somehow very smart and incredibly stupid at the same time. She is my first lab, and the reason I’ve fallen in love with the breed. Forest has also earned her Community Canine and CGC Urban titles, her trick dog advanced (TKA), and has a few legs towards her rally novice title. We’ve also played fast cat, and dock diving for fun.
Forie is my most athletic dog, she lives to retrieve, play frisbee, train and work her little brain. She’s absolutely food obsessed and is so fun to play and work with.

Toph
Toph is a german shepherd/collie mix but we just say she's a full shepherd with a pointy nose! In typical GSD fashion, she too experiences FOMO at the highest degree, so much so that you will hear her a mile away when she’s not involved. Toph is queen of the bean bags and must always have a pillow to rest her head on to reach maximum cozy level. She is truly one of a kind and will always leave a lasting impression on you.
