change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

Henry is…

licking

eating treats

playing with toys

loving his Mommy

spoiled

 
 

Henry | Top Dog

Henry does not work, but he is so incredibly cute that he can basically do and get away with anything he wants—just look at him! Although born in 2011, Henry looks like a permanent puppy. Despite his desire to cuddle and be around people every waking hour, when the scent of food enters the room, his dark passenger often emerges.

 
 
 

Floyd is…

very cute

constantly bumping his big head

burying a bully stick

dripping water everywhere

doing zoomies in the house

passed out

 
 

Floyd | Pitty

Floyd has two speeds; passed out or zooming at 60mph. Floyd began his career as a Philadelphia stray eventually making his way into the PAWS foster program. Once in care, his personality went on full display: playing, cuddling, smiling, and spreading happiness to those he touched. Floyd was permanently adopted as a puppy and eventually hired at Rethinc. He continues to shine and grow in his role at the company, invading everyone’s personal space, showing off his toys to his humans and subsequently destroying them all in less than five minutes (somehow, he even destroys zoo toys).
