WOODY
A black and tan miniature dachshund from Kentucky. Woody is known for his lovable personality, his pure innonence, and his knack for getting himself into quite a few pickels! He loves playing with Chloe, going for walks with Mom, and going to town on a good chew toy. His favorite thing is spending the day in schools and inspiring fellow Kentuckians. This is the third generation Woody. We pay tribute to the original Woody and Woody 2.
Fun Fact: This little guy came from Breckinridge County, KY. His breeder was in one of our school assemblies when she was a student at Hardinsburg Elementary School!

CHLOE
A red-headed miniature dachshund and best known as Woody's sister. While the character of Chloe is sensible and level-headed, the Chloe at home can be the family's rebel rouser, always providing a good laugh.
Like Woody, she is the 3rd generation Chloe, following the original Chloe and Chloe 2, who paved the way for her.
Fun Fact: In September of 2022, Chloe (along with Woody and older sister CeeCee), appeared on America's Funniest Home Videos. The clip featuring Chloe as her hilarious self, always brings a roaring belly laugh in every presentation.

ROPER
Roper is a Chocolate Labrador Retriever. Although he started out smaller than Woody and Chloe, he kept growing and growing and growing... Now he weighs more than Mom. He is currently working on his AKC Good Canine Citizen certification as well as his Novice Trick Dog certification. He loves splashing water all over the floor, catching his Frisbee, jumping over hurdles and playing Fetch. He will play 24 hours a day! Roper's dream is to play basketball for the University of Kentucky. You can check out his skills here. If his skills impress you, here's another clip of him training.
Fun Fact: Roper will not eat dinner until Mom or Dad prays and says Amen.

CEE CEE
CeeCee is the oldest of the canine siblings. Although she is a red-headed miniature dachshund, now her face is mostly gray - but she's just as beautiful. Her real name is Chloe Christmas: Chloe since she is Chloe 2 and Christmas since she was born on Christmas Day. Cee Cee was the second generation Chloe and spent many years traveling to schools. Around the age of 9 she decided to move into an office role and pass the traveling off to a younger Chloe.
Fun Fact: Chloe has lost some of her front teeth, so now her tongue hangs out most of the time!

TILLIE
You know the ol' saying "Which one is not like the others?" Well that describes Matilda, or Tillie for short. A black cat with gold eyes, Tillie spends most of her time outside in the field, hunkered down, hunting mice. When she does venture in the house to take a break from hunting, she runs as fast as she can to the basement to escape her canine siblings!
Fun Fact: Although her name is Tillie, we've always called her Scooter. And before you ask, no, there's no reason for that name.
