At Ivy Endodontic Group, we believe smiles come in all shapes, sizes… and sometimes with paws! Our team’s pets bring us joy, laughter, and plenty of stories worth sharing. In this series, we’ll introduce you to the furry friends who keep our lives full of love outside the office.

Meet Gogi: Ivy Endodontic Groups’ Unofficial Mascot

Every dental office needs a little heart, and at Ivy Endodontic Group, ours comes with four paws and a whole lot of personality. Meet Gogi, Dr. Um’s beloved pup and our unofficial office mascot.

Gogi’s Story

Dr. Um adopted Gogi when he was just 2 months old during the pandemic. He’s now a 5-year-old, blue long-haired Weimaraner—and very much an only child (and proud of it!).

Personality Plus

Gogi is equal parts love and sass. He thinks he’s human, sometimes forgets how to “dog” at the park, and is known for his very opinionated looks—though he keeps his thoughts to himself.

Favorite Things

Beach Runs: Gogi loves long runs by the ocean. (No pina coladas, though!)
Grandpa Time: His current favorite person is Grandpa, who sneaks him too many treats and takes him on dog park adventures.
Butt Scratches: Gogi is fully aware of how gorgeous he is and won’t hesitate to back up to new friends, politely demanding scratches.ghts to himself.

Why We Love Him

Gogi makes life brighter with his quirks, loyalty, and sass. He reminds us that, just like in dentistry, a little love and humor go a long way.

We’d love to meet your pets too! Share a picture or story about your furry (or feathered!) friends in the comments or tag us on social media — let’s keep the smiles and wagging tails going.
