Developer Pet Series

Model Bio
Elephant Always by DGA’s side, this adorable sidekick brings charm, cheer, and a trunkful of inspiration to every creative adventure. If you are lucky you might catch them running through vaults looking for friends while sporting matching tinfoil hats
Shiba The Shiba is DogV2’s loyal (and slightly mischievous) pet of choice. Sleek, sly, and always one step ahead, this clever canine once legendarily ran off with DogV2’s trousers—and they’ve never been seen since. Whether it's causing chaos or charming the crowd, the Shiba is always at the center of attention.
Raccoon Douwsky is never too far from his Trashpanda. Eats chaos for breakfast and leftovers for dinner.

Part-time dumpster diver, full-time vibe curator. If you can’t find him, check behind the bins.

Huskie Venus is a fiercely loyal floof with a heart of gold. When not zooming through the vaults on a mission to outpace Iskall, they’re usually sprawled on the couch, sipping a cold beer and plotting their next adventure
Pug Wrinkles is a cute, perfectly baked loaf of pug. When he's not melting hearts with his squishy face and signature snorts, you’ll likely find him sharing a burger or chasing bugs with his best friend, Carolinet. Equal parts snack connoisseur and backyard explorer, Wrinkles lives life one snuggle at a time.
Moose This is Mnoose's trusty steed Jim. Rescued one day, many years ago, from a herd of wild Double-Doubles on the sunny beaches of Northern Canada; Jim has rarely left Mnoose's side since. You can often hear Mnoose cry out, as they ride across the plains, "JIM! LEND ME YOUR ANTALERS!!!! MNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE!!"
