Pets of New West

Working Hard? Or Hardly Working?

At New West Equipment, we take our work seriously – but we also believe enjoying where you work matters.

Meet the Pets of New West

Over the years, a few four-legged team members have become part of daily life around the yard, shop, and office. They don’t run equipment or coordinate deliveries, but they do provide morale support, supervision from safe distances, and the occasional reminder to take a break.

Spoon - pet of New West

Spoon

Director of Morale & Security (Sometimes)

Spoon is the definition of a gentle giant. The sweetest boy around, he can often be found quietly hanging out in the office a few days a week. But don’t be fooled—at the first sign of a loud noise, he’s on high alert as Olivia’s self-appointed protector… even if his instinct might be to make a quick getaway.

Owner: Olivia

Breed: Bernedoodle

Speedy - pet of New West

Speedy

Veggie Procurement Coordinator

Speedy has a particular passion: lettuce. Quick, enthusiastic, and always eager for a snack, Speedy keeps things fun (and leafy) wherever he goes.

Owner: Talia

Breed: Pomsky

Chip - pet of New West

Chip

Junior Morale Support Assistant

Chip is our newest hire, and at just 3 lbs, he’s the smallest member of the team—but don’t let his size fool you. He’s a bit nervous around new people (you might catch a little shake), but he’s already warming up to his mom, Keri. Quiet as a mouse, he prefers to keep things low-key—especially when it comes to going outside.

Owner: Keri

Breed: Toy Poodle

Maple - pet of New West

Maple

VP of Emotional Support

Maple is pure sweetness. Loves cuddles, belly rubs, and stretching out in her humans’ arms—especially when Ryley comes to visit.

Owner: Emma

Breed: Toy Poodle

Hanz - pet of New West

Hanz

Stair Navigation Specialist (In Training)

Hanz may not be the newest on the team anymore, but he’s still working on conquering stairs one step at a time. Always willing to jump in (carefully), he brings a great attitude and keeps improving every day.

Owner: Emma

Breed: Schnoodle

Bear - pet of New West

Bear

Director of Sock Relocation

Bear keeps operations on their toes as the team’s resident sock thief. Focused, determined, and always on a mission, he ensures no loose sock goes unaccounted for. His dedication may be questionable in purpose—but never in effort.

Owner: Bruno

Breed: German Shepherd

Biggie - pet of New West

Biggie

Ball Logistics Manager

Biggie is a world-class ball chaser with energy to spare. He’s fast, smart, and driven. Returning the ball, however, is entirely up to him.

Owner: Lindsay & Jerod

Breed: German Shepherd x Husky

Cara - pet of New West

Cara

Supervisor of Personal Space Violations

Cara is the definition of gentle—over 100 lbs of pure love wrapped up in a calm, quiet presence. Sweet as can be, she makes sure no one is left out, happily making her rounds to give equal affection to everyone in the room. Despite her size, she’s convinced she’s a lap dog—and honestly, no one’s arguing.

Owner: Mira

Breed: Husky Mix

Charlie - pet of New West

Charlie

Supervisor of Treat Logistics

Charlie is a master moocher with a serious talent for sniffing out snacks—if there’s food around, he’s already asking for it. Super friendly and always happy to say hello, he may be a little vision-impaired (mostly seeing shadows), but that doesn’t slow him down. Especially when it comes to his favourite thing: walks.

Owner: Doug

Breed: Mut

Cleo - pet of New West

Cleo

Director of Suspicious Activities

Cleo looks sweet and innocent, but there’s always a plan brewing. Silent, watchful, and slightly suspicious, she keeps tabs on everything. The cutest little menace you’ll never see coming.

Owner: Ashley

Breed: Ragdoll

Daisy - pet of New West

Daisy

Director of Attention Demands

Daisy runs her side of the operation with flair and drama. A true princess at heart, she lives for snowy days and constant attention. If things aren’t going her way, you’ll hear about it—but she keeps the team smiling while doing it.

Owner: Bruno

Breed: Border Collie

Dexter - pet of New West

Dexter

Dexter was found under Liz’s deck and hasn’t stopped talking since. Loud, needy, and very loving, he runs daily 5–6 AM meetings to demand breakfast and attention.

Owner: Elizabeth

Breed: Unknown

Harley - pet of New West

Harley

Accessibility Coordinator

Harley, aka Chungus, doesn’t let anything slow her down. With her trusty wheelchair, she’s always ready to get outside and enjoy the day. Resilient, happy, and full of heart, she’s impossible not to love.

Owner: Stephen

Breed: Olde English Bulldog

Joey - pet of New West

Joey

Head of Conflict Resolution

Joey is a loving, cuddle-first kind of guy who’s always ready for his next walk. He knows what he wants—and isn’t shy about making it known. At home, he takes his role seriously as the unofficial dog referee, keeping his dog-nephews in line whenever things get a little too rowdy.

Owner: Mira

Breed: Shih Tzu-Pomeranian

Kaos - pet of New West

Kaos

Team Lead, Zoomies Department

Kaos is happiest when at home, full of energy and love. Vehicles? Not his thing. Otherwise, he’s playful, enthusiastic, and impossible not to adore.

Owner: Elizabeth

Breed: Shih Tzu x Havanese

Marlowe - pet of New West

Marlowe

Head of Early Morning Alarms

Marlowe starts every morning with a ball in her mouth and a mission to focus. Friendly greetings can wait—she’s got priorities. Determined, a little sassy, and always ready to play.

Owner: Andrew

Breed: Black Lab x Border Collie

Maxxi - pet of New West

Maxxi

Operations Supervisor, Snack Division

Maxxi, also known as the “Greenie Bandit,” is always on the hunt for snacks. Quick, clever, and persistent, no treat is safe when she’s around.

Owner: Felmor

Breed: Chocolate Lab

Ollie - pet of New West

Ollie

Assistant Manager, Mischief

Ollie is full of energy and always ready to make his presence known—usually right in your face. He loves being the centre of attention and keeps things interesting by closing doors and stirring up a little chaos. His favourite pastime? Loudly eating in his owner’s face (much to their dismay).

Owner: Hannaha

Breed: Beagle x Terrier

Oscar - pet of New West

Oscar

Director of Outdoor Operations

Oscar showed up as a tiny kitten and decided Liz’s house was home. Finicky and affectionate on his terms, he loves the outdoors, naps wrapped around your arm, and picking on his brother Dexter.

Owner: Elizabeth

Breed: Unknown

Wilson - pet of New West

Wilson

Head of Bone Burrowing

Wilson, aka the “house deer,” is big, lovable, and full of personality. He hides bones in creative places and greets everyone with full-body excitement—then backs up for a scratch.

Owner: Karen

Breed: German Shepherd x Blue Heeler x Great Dane

A Quick Note on Safety

All pets on site are there with safety in mind and are kept out of active work areas. They’re part of our workplace culture – not our operations.

Why We Love Them

Workdays are better with good people – and good pets. “Pets of New West” is brought to life with the help of the team behind the scenes – and a lot of love and support from their humans.
