Kicking off the first episode of a must-listen 3-part series, I sat down with Morgan (Mo) Thompson to learn about her inspiring journey founding Mo Mountain Mutts in Skagway, Alaska. Mo shares how her story began when she moved from Michigan with her husband, who wanted to escape the restaurant industry and teach in AK, while she boldly proclaimed she needed a puppy — and the rest is history.
What started as a small, no-vehicle operation—just caring for friends’ dogs on her bike—quickly grew into a community staple. Mo describes her early days balancing multiple jobs in the service industry before COVID-19 turned her life upside down. Through all the uncertainty, she and her dogs found new creative outlets, especially with their fun TikTok account, showcasing their goofy relationship and the animal-centered lifestyle they’ve built in the Last Frontier.
This episode gives a heartfelt introduction to Mo’s passion for dogs and her adventures in AK. It’s a genuine look at how taking a leap of faith and following your calling can lead to a fulfilling and inspiring life. Stay tuned for part 2 as Mo shares even more of her story!

Dog Friendly visited a new spot called Romero's K9 Club and Tap House. They were celebrating being in business for 6 years. It was a fun time and a great atmosphere. There was plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and even jump in a pool or 6. We sat down with 3 lovely ladies and their pups. These ladies visit Romero's as a clan of many. For the celebration, they came to impress or should I say they dressed their pups to impress.
Alpine Howl's Co-Founder sat down to take with his father about his dog stories. He talks about how he grew up with zero dogs and since then has had 4ish. He can not remember if there was a 2nd dog and what its name was. Brandon was convinced it was Scooter. Jack road tripped to Colorado to talk about dogs. Many of the dogs have a special place in his life as well as Brandon's. The connection between a man and his son can be similar to a man and his dog. In this case, they are both goofballs and love to have fun with their pups.
Matt Wagner sat down to talk about his two wonderful pups. Cotton his rather old dog that gets a new sometimes spastic little brother Quincy. Matt talks about the dogs' relationship, health, and how he acquired each dog. It involves the Prison system so it is something you do not want to miss.
