HR Department

WOoWOo. I am Taro. I am a bear. Just kidding. I am an Alaskan Malamute. There's very important nugget business to be done here. If two people in the shop get too close, I will Awoo. If you pet our security manager Storm, I will Awooo. If there's any funny business at all, guess what? Awooo. I like bones, my opossum from the dollar store, and going for car rides.

I also like my Banana costume.

Security Detail

WOOF. I am Storm. I am an Alaskan Malamute. I handle the deliveries, alerting the shop promptly when they arrive. I check all of our shipments very carefully. I sniff them all over before anyone in the shop can open them. When I am done I get head pats. I like belly rubs, my lamb chop, and zooming in circles at the park.
