Behind the story

Meet the Pack

The real dogs behind the adventures

Every great story starts with real characters. Oscar, Piper Jean, and Jimmy Dean aren't just book characters — they're real dachshunds with real personalities, real quirks, and real hearts full of love. Here's your chance to meet them up close.

Piper Jean· Pup Chaos

"I may be a little different… but I am one of a kind!"

The Little Lady

Dachshund (Shorthair)Black & Tan Dapple🎂 October 31

Piper Jean was born with a challenge. An injury before she was born left her little back and legs weaker than other puppies. But that doesn't slow her down!

She is brave, determined, loving, and full of curiosity. Piper believes there is no adventure too big, no mystery too tricky, and no treat heist too daring!

The Wise Big Brother

Dachshund (Longhair)Chocolate & Tan🎂 February 3

Oscar is the wise, gentle, and oh-so-fluffy older brother. He may not be the fastest, but he's the smartest — and he's the keeper of the plan!

He loves to help, take notes, and make sure the pack stays out of trouble (usually). Oscar's calm nature and big brain make him the perfect detective, strategist, and friend.
