Reed and Evan Milnor are dog-obsessed brothers from Alton, Illinois, a small suburb outside of St. Louis, Missouri, where they grew up with their family’s lovable chocolate labrador Charlie Gunner and mixed-breed rescue pup Sophie Odelette. In early 2021, Reed and Evan were inspired to write this book to help consolidate and share their learnings about proper dog care.

Evan has had a deep love for nature, animals, and the outdoors since childhood and is currently the owner of a dog training company based in St. Louis, Missouri. He was inspired to co-author this book after he and his wife adopted a three-year-old Siberian Husky-Samoyed mix named Ullr and quickly realized how many elements of dog care they wish they had known prior to adoption.
