John Alex & Kayla
White Fang began when John Alex Vespa relocated to Portland and felt the pull back to working with animals. Inspired by the book and film White Fang, which shaped his childhood, he returned to the work that had always called him.
John Alex grew up with dogs and began working professionally with them at sixteen at a dog resort. That first summer, he discovered training and especially the dogs with social or behavioral challenges. Watching a dog go from isolated or feared to calm, confident, and connected changed the course of his life.
Kayla brings warmth, organization, and heart to White Fang, helping create the home environment that makes our boarding and pack structure possible.
Together, we are a couple of loving goofballs that believe dogs deserve clarity, consistency, and adventure.
