This is Lucky, the 32lb mini Bernadoodle with a bark bigger than his smile and love for walks and his hoo-mans! Lucky also shares a passsion for making beds!

When he's not working on his linen-game, he's loafing behind his dad in an oversized pillow in the sun :)

Cleo joined the family in 2021 at just a few months old. She likes running around the house, sleeping in anyone else's bed, eating, trying to run outside, and just being a general trouble maker.
River is the best german shepherd girl you'll ever meet. Just be sure not to leave her alone with any bread products...we had to learn that the hard way. Trouble is adorable but don't let that fool you, she earns her name everyday. I guess that is the default setting for a border collie.
Hagrid is a big floofy gentle giant Sheepadood who joined our family in 2020 at the beginning of Covid. His best friend is his little brother (Human), who's only 1 year younger than him.

Woof I am Sir Reginald Puggington, but you may call me Reggie! I am a pure-breed Cali pug living the life in Austin, TX and besides the heat, I love it here. During the day, you can find me channeling my inner Labrador Retriever as my energetic self loves to run around and play fetch. I return back to my pug self at night where I plop myself on the couch and welcome all cuddles and kisses (and treats! They always get my curly tail waggin'). Thanks for stopping by and getting to know me. Woof woof!
Harley's nickname is Pancake, because she loves to squeeze herself under furniture that is incredibly close the ground. Ozzy's real name is Oswald but we call him Fluffernutter, because he is incredibly fluffy and also pretty nutty. They both love to eat, so their owners can never leave (cat or people) food out. Harley is a scaredy-cat but also master of the household, and Ozzy loves to chew on cardboard and zoom around the house at precisely 10pm. They share custody of an office chair between their two owners and can often be found in collusion against Batman.

Young. Active. Super-friendly. Extremely-friendly "sausage" with short legs and large ears that comes in the dogs' world under name ["Cardigan Welsh Corgi"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardigan_Welsh_Corgi). Loves everybody and everything that moves. Generally intelligent but an attempt to make an eye-contact from a stranger treats as declaration of love no matter what.
Dulce (Sweet in Spanish) is not 100% sure what her breed is (her humans think she is a Jack Russell Terrier). She was rescued from the streets when she was 4 months old. She enjoys eating meat and hates dry food. She is extremely energetic and loves running in the park. She hasn't found another dog her size that can outrun her!
Ginny is fluffy and soft, and her seismic purr can be felt from across the room. Don't let that fool you - she's actually kind of evil and has the best hunting skills around. Personally, I'm rather glad she's out of the "surpise lacerations" phase of kittenhood, though I wish she would stop licking mayonnaise off our plates.
Like all our cats, Ellie is a former shelter cat. Now she enjoys life on our rural property and thinks she owns the place. She's an absolute lap magnet and purrs like a Harley. Especially if food is involved. She may be the dumbest cat we've ever had, but we love her all the same.

Jibboom is an adopted 8 year old American Staffordshire Terrier. He looks tough, but he's a big softie. He might jump on you, but only because he wants to lick your face so bad.

Mikah (Calico in back) is our moody princess. She tends to think she rules the house, but the minute a new person walks in the house she drops her act and is the most loving cat you will ever meet. Luna (Tuxedo in front) is our laid back cat. She most likely will be found lounging around on her cat tower or near a window. Opposite to her sister, the minute someone new visits, she is no where to be found. With both of them however, once you get to know them, you'll find they are the most loving and gentle cats around.
Milou ("Milo") was named after the adventurous pup in the Adventures of Tintin due to his intrepid spirit and fearless (some would say neurotic) persona. He was discovered by Pilar at the County Animal Shelter where he had been picked up as a stray and been living a life under the alias Fabio. His plucky attitude immediately won over Pilar and her husband and after taking a DNA test he came back as alledgedly being all Chihuahua. His origin story is shrouded in mystery so guesses place him at around 10 years of age by now but you wouldn't know it from his eternally youthful behavior. When he's not sunbathing or protecting the fort, he enjoys helping keep the floors clean after his toddler roomates' meals and serving as part baby doll part super villain during their imaginary adventures around the house.
Theodore (Theo to his friends) is a feisty, loud and pretty crazy bengal cat, who likes to think that he's a dog. He loves his dad to death (smothering is a real risk!). He and his mum are constantly battling for Simon's attention, Theo normally wins. Benedict (Ben to his admirers) is, by comparison, sedate, lazy and sleeps a lot. That is until he senses the opportunity of going for a walk, when he will proceed to follow you to wherever it is you are going!

Toph is, by far, the Worst Cat. If she understands English, which is debatable, it's likely she thinks her name is Worst. She was named for the destructive, powerful, yet charming Toph Beifong in Avatar: The Last Airbender. When not pursuing her ambitious and exhausting goal of sleeping 22 hours per day, Toph focuses her talents on the destruction of all shades and blinds in her humans' home. When time permits, she continues her quest to hunt down and kill all sunlight reflections from any phone or tablet, with the understanding that knickknacks are just collateral damage waiting to happen. She has an emphatic preference for her humans' left shoulders, rather than their right, for reasons she has never explained. She takes it for granted that her ears will be lovingly nommed every morning as her human reads her morning email.

Jase is a grey and white tabby/tuxedo cat mix and is approximately 7-10 years old. He roamed my neighborhood 5 years ago searching for food and was not microchipped or wore a pet collar. After putting up flyers and checking the local lost pet web sites without luck, my family gave Jase his forever home and new name. He loves freeze-dried chicken and has been trained to go into his cat carrier on command. He is a very smart cat!

Lote is a very moody cat. She turns her back to you, screams for food and scratches everything except the scratcher. She likes purposely ignoring people if you call her name but really loves throwing herself on her back (refer to picture) and giving a quick purr when you come home after a long day away. But at the end of the day, she comes purring to you while sitting at the couch enjoying a movie or likes sleeping on your head while you sleep yourself. She can be sweet but also a little devil, we love her.

Catalina is a feisty, half-blind Russian Blue who stole my heart when I saw her adoption poster. She had a rocky early life, living in unstable homes, but she's really blossomed in a loving household where she can be herself. She may not be able to see well, but she's an incredible listener who comes sprinting in at even the tiniest clatter of food dish or rustle of treat bag. The only cat that doesn't purr or like boxes, you can find her sleeping under the TV stand. Or under the bed. Or under my desk. Or und—
Cody is a 3-year old Maltese Shih-tzu mix, otherwise known as a Teddy Bear. He loves and expects to get attention from everyone.

Both born in the uneventful month of March 2020, Cleo and Chester joined the family in June 2020 and have been ruling the household ever since. Cleo is a bengal that enjoys sleeping, following her humans around, and running on her cat wheel (the more you praise her, the faster she runs).

Chester is a tabby or 'standard issue cat' that loves supervising, 'helping' around the house, and finding new ways to keep his humans on their toes. If you're eating around Chester, expect to share—his favorite foods include cheese and the occasional croissant. Despite his comfortable existence, his mission in life is to get out of the apartment, and he has been known to get into some interesting places in his quest to befriend everyone and everything (except the vet). Chester has his own laptop, but this doesn't stop him from walking across my keyboahajqkwu
Gobi is the quietest cat in the world, only when he is asleep. When he is awake, he wants to be always at the center of the action. He is super curious, if an encyclopedia ever defines FOMO, his picture will be in it. Always a homeboy, he only ever gets out of the apartment when visiting his vet. He loves chin rubs, head scratches, and kisses and absolutely hates it when you touch his stubby tail. He is mischievous and quite vindictive, but he is also very vocal and affectionate, so he gets away with it most of the time.
Well, hi there! I'm fun-loving Fynn. I'm an 8 month old red tri Australian Shepherd and live in Southern California with my mom, some other pups at the house, and lizard siblings. I love to run, play ball, play tug of war, rip up my stuffed animals, and chase my frisbee. I get to spend my afternoons and weekends hiking and playing with my new friends at the dog park. I also spend a lot of time in the garden with my mom where I'm on squirrel duty and take that job very seriously, even though I have yet to catch one. I hate when mom is working and won't pay attention to me! '

His parents might be a little biased, but Oscar is incredibly handsome and they often tell him he's the "cutest boy in the whole world." His morning routine consists of tapping on his mom's face to serve him breakfast and getting some fresh air in the yard. He also enjoys purring on his mom's lap while perched on her right arm as she types. Oscar has been getting a bit chubbier lately but he insists it's only because he's in dire need of snacks all the time.

These boys are both rescues. Benny is a little old man dog that we have no history on (not even what his name was) who loves to sleep under blankets all day unless he is eating. He is overweight, has skin issues, but we are doing our best to give him the love he deserves. Bruno on the other hand, has a troublesome history and is in constant 'protect' mode. Which means no one else besides our immediate family can come in the house, and taking him for a walk is near impossible. He loves us (mostly me) unconditionally, but everyone else is not allowed near us. Love them both to death.
Meraki - the chocolate English Cocker Spaniel - is our newest furry EMEA Field Marketing support, located in Ingolstadt, Germany.

He's my constant foot warmer under my working desk and a loyal companion on our travels!
Oliver is a big, fluffy boy that I've had since he was a kitten. He was a stray and mistakenly identified as a she (I am obviously not a veterinarian), so we named him "Olive". Once we took him to a _real_ vet, "Olive" became "Oliver"! (Pictured here covered in Styrofoam pellets after playing in a cardboard shipping box.)

When Archie was just born he faced a life-threatening condition called puppy strangles. This caused severe swelling and sores and led to the loss of much of his fur. His early days were incredibly tough, and there were moments when we weren't sure if he would make it. But this little fighter defied the odds and pulled through. Today, he is thriving and has become a cherished member of our family. Despite the rough start, he has grown into a calm and gentle soul. He loves nothing more than to sleep at my feet while I work. He's also become a companion to my morning jogs where he not only leads the way but often pulls me along with excitement.
Vespertine was rescued from an extremely up-scale gutter in Ranchos Palos Verdes, California. It was a bit of a lateral move for her to come live with us in an apartment in San Pedro but she is taking it in stride.

Frolic (the brown/orange one) and Detour (silver) are our Maine Coons; as of joining GitLab they were fourteen weeks old. Their favorite pastimes are running very fast, accepting "gentle" pets from a toddler, sitting on my laptop (Detour), and falling asleep on any available human (Frolic).
Sushi (right) and Simon (left) are loving adopted brothers. Sushi was found taking shelter from a winter storm inside a car engine, surviving a long drive with only the loss of his tail.
