Broomes Island

Broomes Island is famous for being the home of Richard Simmons and his collection of 100+ feral dogs. 

In Broomes Island, all dogs are required to wear coyote vests due to the recent increase in coyote dog crossbreeds on the island, which are believed to have escaped from Richard Simmons' compound. Simmons has agreed to subsidize residents' purchase of coyote vests if they use his Amazon referral link.

This coyote dog hybrid is colloquially known as a “Broome dog”, as scientists have not seen the same type of dog anywhere else.

This is where Richard Simmons teaches goat yoga every Wednesday morning. Goat yoga classes are only available to Broomes Island residents.
