Ruff

Ruff isn’t exactly the smartest dog in town. Once upon a time, he was a lonely pup living with a sweet old lady who taught him a few fancy tricks like sit, stay, and roll over. She treated him like her own child, showering him with love and the occasional tasty treat, but there were limits to his education. Sadly, the poor guy completely missed out on the social skills class, leading to some hilariously awkward interactions with other dogs. He would often bark too loud when trying to make friends or would chase after his tail instead of joining a game of fetch. But then came the day he was whisked away by the neighborโ€™s girl, who took him on walks around the neighborhood. She introduced him to Stella. Stella taught Ruff how to keep his tail up and be confident . Each day became an adventure filled with new smells, friends, and the thrill of mastering new tricks, transforming him from a sheltered pup into a more confident and socialized companion.

Doc

Doc is Stella’s Vet, and letโ€™s face it, sheโ€™d rather behave, which doesnโ€™t happen often, than set paw in his office!
