SUPER MUTT!
Parents: Topeko and Hamlet (But she never knew Hamlet--Tripp is her "father")
Siblings:
Kitten, Tomoko, and Butterfly
Personality: Tomboyish and rascally. Raisin likes to push limits and boundaries, and ruffle the feathers of "stuffy-britches", as she calls em. She can be forceful, determined, intense and over-zealous when it comes to breaking the rules or getting what she desires, but she is not excessively perky and go-getting; Often, Raisin will stubbornly refuse to move if she is feeling even a little lazy, and does have a lot of sense in her head. Raisin has a lot of confidence and respect for herself.
Crush: She likes Skylar. Is aware of Pascal's affection for her, but doesn't want to give up on her first love just yet
History:
Since Raisin's dad, Tripp, couldn't have babies, her mom, Topeko, enlisted the help of a certain other male. Thus Raisin and her siblings were born.
Raisin grew up on her parent's farm, and was in love with the freedom of being out in the wilderness. She spent a lot of time with her uncles, Pip and Zippy, and her aunt Whip. It occurred to her master, through their evident uselessness, that Topeko's litter was not actually fathered by any of his hunting or herding dogs--Raisin, heartbroken to be leaving, was then sold into town as a companion dog, and then soon after as a guard dog. Given her bold, tenacious, and intense personality, Raisin actually served her purpose well. Her family poor, and her job was guarding their small storage barn from vagabonds, but Raisin was happy.
She became pals mostly with other poor dogs who live on the outskirts of town, particularly her best female-friend, Umiko. Raisin never really fit in with any of the rich and popular dogs, and she was often sneered at, but she did make friends with one of them--the town playboy, Skylar. Raisin knew about him and conditioned herself not to fall for him. But she couldn't help herself. The pair spent a lot of fun times together running around with as little dignity and as much care-free bliss as possible, until Skylar decided that they would be better as only best friends than as a couple. Raisin was incredibly hurt by this, but desperately wanted to keep Skylar around even as a friend. She put her tough face on and accepted her role as "one of the boys", as she always had.
She meets Pascal later while taking a break at the beech, and somehow (Raisin never put out or anything) gained his attention. Pascal stalked her and found out where she lived, and put on what he considered "smooth moves" for her, but Raisin saw through his crap and ignored him. She did eventually start to tolerate him enough to maybe let him talk to her when she is feeling especially thoughtful or depressed, but generally she plows over Pascal whenever she sees Skylar. She later finds out that Skylar was seeing her friend, Umiko, which makes Raisin boil over with jealousy. She'll often go spy on them and try to break them up, and of course Pascal tags along, even if he is unwelcome. His idea of a break-up plot usually involves him and Raisin being seen together romantically to create jealousy, which causes Raisin to immediately shoot it down and growl at him to get lost.
Other: Lives in a small, run-down house near the bay. Raisin is an outside dog; she sleeps in the barn/shack.
