The crew

Scoop

That's me. Home base is La Porte, Indiana. I've crossed the country twice in the van with my dogs, I play guitar and take song requests on my TikTok lives, and when I'm home I run La Porte Weather Now.

Dude

The Dude in Scoop & Dude: a white, black and gray Great Dane, and the reason this whole thing has a name. A lot of my clips are just Dude being happy.

Bay Bay

The little one of the crew. Small dog, big personality.

The road so far

Two trips back and forth across the country. Every sticker is a state the crew has been to.

46 down, 4 to go: Alaska, Hawaii, Maine and North Dakota.
