Our Story

First comes Finn, and the rest is history!

We met in the summer of 2020, just days after Lily picked up Finny. We bonded over our mutual love for dogs, and swapped pictures of Finny and Meri's parent's new puppy, Beau. From there, things seemed to fall into place. We spent that fall taking Finny on hikes, to Starbucks for pup cups, and hanging out on Lily's deck in her Connecticut apartment. We knew Finny needed a friend to make our home complete, and because Meri had grown up with Australian Shepherds, she was set on getting an Aussie. Not long after moving in together in Quincy, along came Izzy, and we've been doing life as a family of 4 ever since! We feel so lucky to have built a small family together so soon into our relationship, and to have traveled together across the country to our new home in Boulder, Colorado. What feels even more special about this event is the date, 7/26/25, is almost exactly 5 years to the day that we met in person on our first date. We are so excited to have our favorite people see what made us fall in love with this beautiful state (and hopefully convince some of you to move out here too!) We can't wait to see you out here!
