Buster

‘Most ready to have his own space’, Buster was always a little annoyed and overwhelmed by his gaggle of enthusiastic siblings. During puppy free runs, if one of his siblings tried to mess or play with him while he was focused on running down the trail, Buster would not tolerate the distraction—we are working, Mr Zebra!

Of the group, Buster is the most emotional and sensitive to new things, such as a neighbor on the line pushing too hard onto him or the really weird and awkward way we do a 3 mile loop. However, Buster can work through his emotions and learn.

Buster lives next to his sister Slayer, and they are constantly playing. Buster and his siblings all require multiple platforms—which I call ‘party platforms’—to stand on and look across the yard. Buster takes this need to be on high one step further, and when we stop on the trail he can be spotted trying to stand on top of the gangline. A long muscular dog, Buster has been hanging out next to Oriana on the team, as the most neutral energy to balance his emotions.

Buster is a nod to the comedy genius that is Arrested Development—and, also, borrowed from a friends beloved frisky cat!
