Kadek Darma

Kadek Darma, S.Ds is a dog care writer at petautumn.com specializing in dog breeds, behavior, training, and product reviews for dog owners across the United States. A graduate of Visual Communication Design from Universitas Udayana in Bali, Kadek relocated to Austin, Texas in 2019 with his partner Ayu Pratiwi. Shortly after arriving, he adopted Meepo — a mixed breed shelter dog who was days away from being euthanized. That experience sparked a deep passion for canine welfare and responsible pet ownership. Kadek brings a practical, hands-on perspective to every article, drawing from real-world experience raising Meepo in an apartment setting, navigating the US veterinary system, and testing countless dog products firsthand. His coverage spans breed guides, obedience training, nutrition, gear reviews, and outdoor activities with dogs — always grounded in reputable sources including the American Kennel Club (AKC), ASPCA, and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).
