I am a father to three beautiful children, who have all grown up and currently take part in our family business! For that, I am very proud. I love life, and it is truly a gift to be a part of something that brings me AND so many others joy and internal fulfillment. For me, it’s to watch how life happens. Although I never became a doctor (against my mothers wishes,) I’ve always been fascinated by the medical field. All these things seem to come naturally to me, and I’m not at all offended when my friends and family call me “Dr. Kon!”

Long ago, I was in your shoes… trying to find a puppy and make our home more full and joyful! My search however, was very long and useless. After a long while, I wanted to give up and settle for something that was “second choice.”

Well, I’m glad I didn’t give up. I found a breeder in the UK who was able to talk to me, teach me many things, and really just invest a lot into me. She helped me get started, and I still think of her today. I’m so very grateful for her time and patience, because now I have achieved my goal! My goal was to help folks like me and youth make sure that they don’t have to wait 2+ years like I did to make their dream come true. Also, people could have a way to contact us, anytime for anything… unlike my experience where I had many questions unanswered in the whole process. I’m so proud of our team of people here, that truly cares and shows love for the people and animals on a daily basis.

It is my favorite to see updates of families with their new, grown up pups. Its our pleasure to watch and see how many lives have changed with the addition of something so magnificent: The loving, playful and everlasting love from a Pomsky!

I am the daughter of the boss man Konstantin, so I’ve been around Bowtie Pomsky since the day it first came to be in Kon’s mind. I’ve watched the whole process, and done my due diligence in almost every aspect. Ive had my hand in almost every project and adventure. I was a caretaker for many years, and created photos and videos however often I could for our social media.

I have since married to a beautiful, curly haired young man and moved away. Not too far away of course, I’ve moved to a manager position. With Riley’s and Samantha’s help, I now can put 100% of my attention to other details that must be taken care of. My tasks include: Doing any and all puppy paper work, updating the website, scheduling deworming and vaccines, making the vet appointments and photoshoot appointments, running all of our social media sites, answering questions and making phone calls to future puppy parents. I help do video chats and puppy playdates, to help folks find the right puppy for their family. If you ever comment or ask questions via Facebook, Instagram or YouTube…. Its usually me who will be responding! I frequently visit and play with the pups to find out what kind of temperament they have, estimate their adult size, and of course take many pictures and videos to capture all the special moments for folks to see via social media.

I originally started doing social media things for one purpose, and that was to prove to folks that we are indeed real… and not a scam. It was no fun, I hated it. But, now I’ve gotten rather good at it, and I actually enjoy that part of my job. Answering questions for folks about Pomskies via video, and capturing the hilarious and most heartwarming puppy moments is a fun thing to do indeed. I wouldn’t trade it for anything!

He gets paid in puppy kisses and is happy to be a part of the dog-loving community.

My name is Johnny, and Im Kontantin’s son! I’ve been around since the beginning of Bowtie Pomsky. It has been a fun journey for me, as Shila and Zina were my first pets! Tabby and I would walk them, teach them tricks and eventually I’d help take pictures and videos for the dogs’ social media!

Taking photos is a lot harder than it looks, especially with such hilariously mischievous puppies. They have almost no attention span it seems sometimes, so keeping them entertained and grabbing their attention is something Tabby and I are pretty good at.

We do best when we work together, as we’ve already experimented with Shila and Zina long ago! So, even though I don’t work for Bowtie Pomsky, the dogs are a big part of my life. Shila was and is my soul dog, and Tabby calls me every once in a while to help take photos and videos of puppies.

Although I don’t plan on working full time at Bowtie Pomsky, I enjoy popping in and helping here and there, whenever someone needs it. My dad’s business has flourished and come a long way, I’m happy to say that everyone at the Bowtie Pomsky team is very pleasant, and is a friend of our family! It’s always a pleasure coming by and being a part of this special family of dog lovers! I get paid in puppy kisses and I wouldn’t change a thing.

I work at Bowtie Pomsky taking care of the dogs and puppies! I am the doggy chef- I make the dogs their yummy soup! I am a doggy chauffeur- I take them to their appointments and sometimes unite puppies with their new families! I also do a lot of cleaning, grooming, walking and training. My favorite part of working at BTP is all the doggy smiles! I am a mom to two lucky girls who come to work with me 1-2 days a week. They help me with the chores and of course play with the dogs and puppies. We have also been very lucky to meet a few customers and unite them with their puppy!

When I am not at Bowtie Pomsky, I am caring for my homestead. I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, 4 ducks and 24 chickens! When the animal chores are done, you’ll find me outside with my kids and husband. We enjoy yard work and playing with our dogs. We love going on hikes and exploring. When I get some time to myself, I love to draw, paint and read.

I had moved to the area in December of 2019 and was granted the position to work for Bowtie Pomsky in March of 2020. I have always had animals growing up, since I was young I knew that animals were and will always be a passion of mine, a significant part of my life.

Working with the dogs, they very quickly, had become my best friends, my family. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for each one. I treat them like they are my own and I love them like they are my own. I got the privilege to work with Tabby for the first six months or so of me being with the company. She trained me, taught me everything I know/do, and passed down her knowledge. Her and I became very close, good friends. Once I was able to prove that I could take on the duties of taking care of everyone, I was gifted the opportunity to work my shifts alone.

Despite the hard work it takes to manage everything needed in order to ensure the health and well-being of each parent and puppy we have, I immediately fell in love with my job. Over time my passion and loyalty to the company had been recognized. With each day I had created more trust, more reliance, more stability with these dogs as well as Kon and Tabby. Not too long after I had become apart of the family. The experience I have working with each parent and litter of puppies is like no other. My work not only brings mass amounts of joy to myself, but also to the dogs as well as the rest of the family.

The care and consideration I hold for these dogs is endless. I now view them as my own, I call them my kids. Not only do I love my job, but I’m amazing at what I do. Hence why I’ve been with this company for so long! To know that there are precious souls out there in the world that I have raised gives me instant gratification. As well as knowing they are apart of a family who does nothing but continue to shower them with as much time, attention and love as I did before they leave makes my heart melt. For me, this speaks volumes. If this company wasn’t all it’s “wrapped up” to be, I would not be here today. The team we have for Bowtie Pomsky works. We’re a family (Including the dogs). Compared to other breeders, Bowtie Pomsky is the best of the best. For that, I am forever grateful to be apart of something so magnificent, as you should be too.

She works at a dog kennel where the dogs are treated like royalty and she finds joy in caring for the puppies from birth to finding their families.

I am a mother to three grown children, and a grandmother to 7 grandchildren! I was able to reunite with my family here in the United States, after recently leaving Ukraine due to the horrible loss of my home, and many other things that I held dear to my heart. Although that was a tragedy, I am adapting well to my new life. One of the greatest blessings so far has been to find a place to work, but not only that, to find the team I got to work with was so loving, and helpful to me.

The dog lovers here are for real… I have seen no other place like this, where the dogs are treated like royalty! I have fun here, and find it fulfilling spending time and caring for the animals here. I love taking my time to care and love on the puppies from the day they are born, to the day I get to see them find their families. Nothing brings me more joy than to see the puppies start their new life adventure, and I get to witness all the precious little moments.

It’s definitely not easy to see the pups leave our nest, but knowing they are going to loving and caring homes, where they will be ridiculously spoiled… sure does bring warmth and peace to my heart. I have always had dogs growing up, and saw how amazing and important it was for children to be exposed to loving other living things. I love monitoring our fur babies, making sure they are eating well, watching how they interact and see how they are feeling. For the mom dogs under my care, I make sure they are bathed, brushed, fed and well exercised. Making sure they are happy and loved makes me feel fully accomplished in all of my tasks.

Hi, my name is Danette Roberts. I am a mother, wife, friend and veterinarian. When I graduated from vet school my son was 3 years old. I carried him onto the stage as I accepted my diploma. From that day on he called me Dr. Mom. From that point on my friends and family have called me that.

I have been a veterinarian in the Spokane and Post Falls area for the past 23 years. I graduated from WSU college of Veterinary medicine in 1999. I received a bachelor’s in animal nutrition in 1995 and an associates in Veterinary Technology in 1989. I wanted to be a veterinarian since I was about 4 years old. As a child I was the kid who brought home the injured bird or the baby bunny and would attempt to nurse them back to life. Fortunately, my success rate has greatly improved since those early days. Along the way I have never veered from my goals. As a kid I showed my dog (Lady), rabbits, my pony (Cody) and my horse (Targa) in 4-H. I learned at a young age the sacrifices it takes to care for animals and the joys and heart break that go along with it.

I love what I do and am very compassionate about my clients and their beloved pets. My goal is to treat each one of my clients and patients as an individual and provide the care that they and their furry friends need. I believe that honesty and open communication is very important.

Over the years I have gained skills, knowledge and a special interest in many fields including dermatology and reproduction. I love the challenge of a difficult medical case as well as offering the help and guidance to someone with a new puppy or kitten. I offer kindness and gentle understanding during the difficult “end of life” decisions and take pride in offering the best palliative care for our friends during the last days of their lives. I give comforting words and a soft shoulder, not guilt.

During my off time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I have a young Boston Terrier named “Willow” that I enjoy training and snuggling with. I enjoy camping, spending time outdoors, hiking, snow shoeing and picking berries in the woods in the summer. My husband and I enjoy renovating our vintage home and have many funny stories, scars and “what not to do” recommendations.

I am excited to offer my services, knowledge, kindness, honesty and support to my clients and their beloved pets for many more years to come at Dr Mom’s Animal Clinic.

They call me the “FIX it guy” here. I thrive at problem solving! I could encounter any challenge in anything building related, and not to brag or anything, but I can fix it, or build something better. It has been the most awesome honor to be a part of such a great crew at Bowtie Pomsky. I’ve been a big part of the construction of our custom dog kennel/facility. I’ve watched it become what it is, from the ground up, and maintain it everyday. Every single detail was discussed, and everything was thought about thoroughly. The comfort of the dogs was the main priority, and so everything needed to be perfect for the operation to work! I know our facility down to the nail! I get any and every phone call if there’s anything that needs my attention.

It is my responsibility to make sure everything works, and it must be to the highest of standards. I myself am a perfectionist, and here I get to work out my art and creativity. Things I maintain include but are not limited to: plumbing, heating, flooring, painting, repairing and building things like doggie doors and refreshing nurseries for new puppies, and making sure every complicated thing is supervised and working properly such as our radiant floors.

I also have had many opportunities to help Bowtie Pomsky ship dogs all over the United States, either by air or long distance driving. I started working with Bowtie Pomsky five years ago, and I don’t see myself going anywhere! My kids often join me at work, and they just cannot resist playing with and socializing with the puppies. I love to see that; it blesses them by teaching them to be caring and loving towards animals.
