Everyone loves Grumman. 4 years old, he is fast, smart, and a good cuddler, what he had to be to survive as the smallest of the WW2 Airplane Litter. His siblings are half again his size but Grumman makes up for it by being very athletic and can lead a team or run anywhere else on the team.

Ballast

Growly-Bally is just that- growly. She talks by growling and does it even as she is getting pets with tail wagging.  Ballast is 6 years old and was born on the same day as Spinnaker. Her mission in life is collecting gloves, socks, bones, and Dan’s tools to take to Fathom’s circle for him to play with.  She and her son Fathom are best friends and tussle constantly.
