Bio
Grade was born in an alleyway and was abandoned by his mother. He was found by a passerby and was promptly taken to a shelter where he was nursed and raised up to a healthy young pup. He was a young pup who just wanted to learn & understand. But nobody seemed to want Grade, for one reason or another, though it all seemed to tie back to his breeds being deemed "dangerous". Poor pup was all alone after getting tastes of family life in Foster homes before being returned to the shelter again. But his life turned around when he the Paw Patrol picked him up one day. With good memory and his desire to learn, Grade was soon welcomed to the local schools, geared up as a School pup, aiding as a hall monitor, a lesson aid, and basically helping out in anyway he can.
While they did give him his tag and an outfit, after being tagged as an honorary member and a helper pup, they help him find a more suitable, permanent home with a young teacher, Miss Maricruz "Mari", that worked at the elementary school. He is overwhelmed with joy finally having found his perfect person and becomes her class mascot alongside his other tasks.
One day, Inkwell and his owner Arwin had recently moved into Adventure bay. Inkwell had been raised by Arwin since he was a little puppy and went with him everywhere. While Arwin went to the post office to check out a job inquiry, Inkwell ran to the park where he found Grade playing with Mari. The two immediately got along and became very fast friends. They would have playdates whenever they weren't working with their owners- Grade even introduced Inkwell to the PAW Patrol, where Ryder gave him his own tag and uniform so he could help Arwen out on his routes and use the puptag to call for help if he ever needed it- becoming another Honorary helper pup. It wasn't long before their owners even started to become closer to each other, which the boys noticed. They helped set up dates and pushed the idea of them being romantic and then they finally started to date. The couple got married after a year and Grade and Ink are excited to be brothers and have a full family.
Trivia
- Inkwell was named for the blotches of white on his chest looking like ink splotches and because of his deeper blue hue compared to his siblings and parents having the usual black and charcoal colored coats.
- Inkwell develops a crush on Ella, which Grade likes to tease him about. It's all in good fun, but he thinks it's adorable when his brother gets flustered around the golden retriever.
