Some pawprints stay with us forever
Forever in the Pack
Before there was FuncleDavidsPack, there were Max and Isabella.
​
They helped shape the love, patience, and passion that  eventually grew into this pack. Their impact reaches far beyond the time we shared, and everything we've built carries a little piece of them. They will always be part of our story.
The Ones Who Started it All
Isabella came into my life as a stray who needed a home. I rescued her, and she quickly became Max's inseparable companion. The two of them were like two peas in a pod.
​
She was a protective German Shepherd with the biggest heart. She would groom Max as if he were her own puppy, always looking after him. She even had a habit of positioning herself between me and a cabinet, as if  protecting me from bumping into it. It was one of those little things that made her personality so special.
​
More than anything, Isabella wanted to love and be loved. She had a gentle heart, and a protective spirit, and a way of making sure her person was always looked after.
Max came into my life when he was just three months old, and he quickly showed me there was something extraordinary about him. His ability to learn, understand, and grasp directions was unlike anything I'd experienced. Sometimes, it genuinely felt like communicating with a person.
​
Watching how quickly he learned and how much he was capable of understanding sparked something in me. Max was the beginning of my love for pup training and helped me discover a passion. I would eventually turn into something bigger. So much of what I love about working with the pups today started with him.
​
He he taught me to appreciate just how much our pups are capable of learning when we take the time to understand them.
The Hearts Behind the Pack
Max
Isabella
The one who sparked a passion for training.
The loving protector with a heart of gold.
Larry
Little Larry, showed up in 2020 when the world stopped. Ive never met a Chihuahua who did not have the little dog complex? He just wanted to be part of a family and his dads gave him that and so much more.Â
2020 – 2026
Spartacus
Sparky, the pint sized German Shepherd in a dachshund body. AuntieBrandi had the pleasure of calling him her son. He was the sweetest most loving pup with a personality to match.
2019  – 2021
The Pack's Forever Friends
Hermes
July 11, 2023 - December 9, 2024
Herm, my sweet little happy tank. I don't think I've ever met a happier pup. He really had the smize down. I can still see him now wiggling and smiling so happy to be loved and have a home and family.
Every pup has a story. Every pawprint leaves a mark.
Tom
Tommy Bahama, oh my sweet loving Tom. He was one of the first pups who started FuncleDavid. He quickly became family and had a home away from home here with me. I'll never forget his grin when he greeted me, and that little nub of a tail moving a million miles a second.Â
2011 – 2024
Prudence
Pru Pru, what a huge personality in a little body haha. She ran a tight ship with her two other furry siblings. Although she crossed the rainbow bridge her presence is still with us!
March 8, 2016 – August 22, 2020
Hercules
December 12, 2010 - June 23, 2023
Herc, my time with him was short but I'm so honored to have spent the time I did have with him. I can still see him laying in the grass rolling around. Â
Beau
Sweet Beau, I didn't know him long but like all labs he had a heart of gold. When I think of love I think of Beau and his human parents. He showed unconditional love and his parents returned that ten fold.
2010 – 2024
Snow
Snow baby, another of AuntieBrandi's fur babies. He wasn't with us long but oh did he make his presence known. Like all huskies he definitely let you know what was on his mind.Â
2017 - 2018
Katana
Little Katana, my sweet loving assertive little girl. She also was one of my first clients and I'm so thankful for my time with her. I'll never forget my last moments with her playing with the water hose in the backyard. Â
20102– 2020
Little Bear
Little Bear, the little pup that had a spirit ten times her size. Her big personality lit up a room and despite her back legs not working to their fullest capacity she didn't let that stop her. She still found a way to run and enjoy life to the fullest.Â
2010 – 2025
Bella
Bella, sweet little girl who had the pleasure of calling Auntie brandi mom and snow baby brother. She actually was the daughter of Max and Isabella.Â
2016 – 2026
Once Part of the Pack, Always Part of the Pack
Every pup who has touched my life has left something behind — a memory, a lesson, a laugh, or a little piece of their heart. Whether they were part of my family, a friend's family, or the FuncleDavidsPack family, they will always hold a special place in this story. Their eternal paw prints left on my heart are part of what makes this pack what it is today.
