Meet Kira, the First Dog and beloved friend of President Jasken and her family, David, Iain and Kyle. The black and brown rescue dog was adopted by the family in 2019 and her sweet nature immediately made her an adored member of the family. Sensitive and quiet and a mix of many different breeds (rottweiler, black lab, German shepherd, and chow have all been identified), Kira loves belly rubs, treats and curling up with her favorite humans on the couch.
President Jasken and members of her family can be seen regularly walking Kira across campus. If spotted, feel free to join along— walks with Kira are a great time to chat with the president and spend some time with McDaniel’s favorite pup.
