Name: Uluru
Age: 2 Years
Sex: Male
Breed(s): Blue Bay Shepherd x Wolfhound
Color/Coat-Type: Mottled Blue-Black. Long – stiff guard hairs.
Pack Status/Occupation: Scout / Pack Council
Height: 32” [at withers]
Weight: 80#
Strengths: Uluru is an industrious young male. While he is not known for his sharp wit, Uluru has a manner of working things out – a sort of second sense, rather than outright intelligence. Being large and powerful-looking, gives him an intimidation factor, though truly he is little more than a whelp.
Weaknesses: Uluru’s personal pride often gets in the way – the young male is also easily influenced. Though keen-minded, the cur often errs on the side of instinct rather than thought. Curiosity and stubborn pride, typically, are the male’s downfall.
Personality: Stiff at times, Uluru takes his newly appointed position on the Pack Council quite seriously. Though he does not yet have the wisdom that comes with age, Uluru fancies himself to be quite intelligent. The male can be kind and somewhat soft-spoken when comfortable, and often shows himself to be rather immature.

Name: Kuzah
Age: 5 Years
Sex: Male
Breed(s): Ibizan Hound - Cross
Color/Coat-Type: Piebald -burnt umber/white. Medium-length wirehair.
Pack Status/Occupation: ‘Fringer’ – Ostracized to territory outskirts. Low-rank.
Height: 26” [at withers]
Weight: 45#
Strengths: Silver-tongued, Kuzah is capable of talking his way out of, or into, just about anything. Extreme speed and agility – long limbs and a coursing dog’s pedigree carry him as the quickest member of the pack. Very keen intellect- the hound only uses this to benefit himself.
Weaknesses: Unliked, Kuzah is the last to feed from a kill. Lean beyond any measure of health, the hound is rather rawboned and rickety. Low strength, pain tolerance, and constitution. Seemingly unable to control his quick wit, Kuzah is constantly getting himself into scraps he can’t fight his way out of.
Personality: A simpering, self-pitying hound, Kuzah is near impossible to befriend. His words are either quick and scalding, or aloof and dismissing. The hound has a holier-than-thou sort of demeanor towards higher ranking pack members. However, when it benefits him, Kuzah will fawn on others; genuinely. Kuzah will often attach himself to a stronger, higher-ranking pack member, endearing himself to them.

Below are what I lovingly refer to as "the border collie squad." Can you tell they're my fave? Lol
The Scouting Squad
Name: Kovu
Age: 3 years
Breed(s): Border collie
Color/Coat-Type: Blue merle (with tiny bits of the tri-color tan), long-haired
Pack Status/Occupation: Scout team leader
Height: 20 in
Weight: 36 lbs
Strengths: Bold, intelligent, agile, fast, good leader and teacher, charismatic
Weaknesses: Too determined/focused, not good in relationships, very independent, impulsive liar
Personality: Kovu is a typical border collie in that he is focused, driven, and very smart. He is a natural leader and his charm and charisma help him to gain followers and loyalty. Kovu is an expert scout and loves to teach others, but can be caught up in wanting to be independent. He lies frequently, and seemingly for no reason. Not very dependable, but very talented.

Name: Jula
Age: 5 years 6 mo
Breed(s): Border collie with a little mutt
Color/Coat-Type: Black and white irish, smooth coat
Pack Status/Occupation: Scout second-in-command
Height: 19 in
Weight: 28 lbs
Strengths: Wise, patient, level-headed, intelligent, loyal, trustworthy
Weaknesses: Manipulative, brutally honest, self-centered, small, relatively weak
Personality: Jula is the mother figure and the voice of reason of the scouting team. She keeps Kovu and the others out of trouble, and acts as Kovu's advisor and messenger. She is the one to be diplomatic and report to the pack leader. However, Jula has been known to use her intelligence to her advantage and manipulate others for personal gain.

Name: Corvo
Age: 7 years
Breed(s): Border collie/rough collie
Color/Coat-Type: Tri-color blue merle, rough and long-haired coat
Pack Status/Occupation: Scout guard
Height: 24 in
Weight: 47 lbs
Strengths: Brave, strong, handsome, witty, charming
Weaknesses: Impulsive, belligerent, not very fast or agile (for a border collie), oblivious
Personality: Corvo is the typical Prince Charming. He's brave, strong, loyal, and charming, not to mention being quite the looker. He is larger due to his rough collie parentage, making him a good source of muscle for the scout team. Although he can be witty and smart, Corvo is often oblivious to what's going on around him and is slow to pick up on things. He acts often on impulse and will start a fight with anybody who poses a threat to him, his honor, or his team.

Name: Trip
Age: 11 mo
Breed(s): Border collie
Color/Coat-Type: Blue slate and white irish, medium-long coat (still puppy-ish in spots)
Pack Status/Occupation: Scout trainee
Height: 17.5 in
Weight: 25.5 lbs
Strengths: Quick learner, determined, loyal, excellent memory, agile and fast
Weaknesses: Young and naive, gullible, small and gangly still, can be over-zealous
Personality: Trip was bred by a breeder and raised in a pet home before the humans were wiped out. Not wanting to be branded a sissy pet dog, he set out to find a pack/faction to join. He was discovered by the scout team and, due to his breed, was accepted as a trainee. Trip tries his best to do good work and keep up with the rest of the team, but he has a lot to learn and is still young and naive. He lacks body-awareness, but improves every day.
