We’re thrilled to welcome a new very important pup to the BARK leadership team! Meet Hendrix, our brand-new Chairdog. According to his resume, he’s a part-time cheese tax collector, full-time chaos goblin, and 100% certified Good Boy.

Three legs. Zero limits.

Born in the sunny paradise of St. Croix, Hendrix now lives his best life in Orlando, FL, where he rules the backyard with three legs (because, in his words, four legs are overrated). He’s got just the kind of energy we're looking for at BARK: charming, determined, and adorably unstoppable. 

A Supermutt of the People

Hendrix truly represents all of dogkind. According to his DNA test, he is:


  • 34.3% American Pit Bull Terrier
  • 29.8% Chow Chow
  • 23.3% Supermutt
    • Small Poodle
    • American Staffordshire Terrier
    • Chihuahua
    • German Shepherd
  • 12.6% American Bulldog

Resume highlights

Hendrix brings a paw-sitively impressive resume to the role:

  • Social Media Star (March 2023 – Present): Melts the internet with content cuteness and OOTD videos, raises awareness for rescue pets as an irresistibly adorable tripawd ambassador, and uses his three-legged adorableness to charm brands into sponsorships.

  • Goodest Boy (May 2021 – Present): Performs daily zoomies (which are 25% more efficient), consumes pup cups, and heroically barks at the “bad guys” walking past the house.


Special skills:

  • Falling asleep in under 1.5 seconds

  • Olympic-level swimmer (3-legged division)

  • Wrestling skills that rival WWE superstars

  • Uncanny ability to hear a chip bag from a mile away


Fun facts:

  • Named after the legendary Jimi Hendrix , a fellow lefty.

  • A proud “ potcake ” (a sweet nickname for St. Croix’s street dogs).

  • CGC-Certified AKC Canine Good Citizen

  • Celebrates Halloween every year with pun-tastic tripawd costumes — past favorites include a pirate, shark attack survivor, and Champion from Parks and Rec.

  • Speaks with buttons (his current favorite is “bully stick,” because priorities).

  • Birthday: May 2nd
