Everyone, please meet Ralph Copley Murry,  Ad Astra’s Mascot! Named after essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson and painter John Singleton Copley, Ralph was born on January 23, 2022, in San Bernadino County, along with five siblings. A happy boy, who is always dapper in this little bow tie, Ralph is a Boston Terrier who dreams of growing up to one day become a chew toy tester.

When Ralph is not gnawing on his Himalayan yak milk chew, he can usually be found hanging out with his pals at the Upper Douglass Dog Park.

I was named after two other famous Bostonians, essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson and painter John Singleton Copley.

Shredding toilet paper, paper towels, and fabric-care tags on blankets.

Napping in an unmoving beam of sunlight.

Lately, gnawing on my Himalayan yak milk chew but I am also into getting the zoomies.

Lick yourself till you gag.
