Zani is Pat’s 7-year-old Border Collie … and her fifth one at that! With a heart full of energy and a brain to match, Zani is equal parts class clown and canine genius. He’s the life of the party, always ready to make people laugh, but don’t let his goofy grin fool you, he’s one smart cookie who’s always keen to give anything a go… usually at full speed and in his own unique style!

When he’s not showing off his moves, Zani loves a good snooze in the office and takes his job as “professional distraction dog” very seriously during Private Lessons. Whether he’s helping other dogs build confidence or just offering a fun distraction, Zani brings fun, flair, and a whole lot of heart to everything he does!

Murphy is Molly’s 10-year-old Maremma and the wise old soul of the Flying Paws crew. Calm, steady, and deeply loyal, Murphy brings a quiet confidence to everything he does. He’s officially retired from most of his working duties these days, but still loves to step in during Private Sessions when we need a calm, steady distraction dog.

These days, you’ll mostly find Murphy snoozing his days away, surveying his kingdom, and trying his hardest to pretend the Border Collies don’t exist. True to his breed, he’s a natural guardian, reminding us all of the power of patience, presence, and a well-timed nap.

Fox is Molly’s 1-year-old Border Collie and the youngest member of the Flying Paws crew. Currently in his teenage years, Fox brings a whole lot of joy, a little bit of chaos, and those delightfully gangly legs to everything he does.

He’s our class demo dog, learning with curiosity, enthusiasm, and a smile that could win over anyone. Fox loves getting involved in training sessions and showing that learning can be fun, silly, and full of heart.

Whether he’s crashing into life headfirst or soaking up praise for a job well done, Fox is a loveable work in progress and we wouldn’t have him any other way.
