A girl and her dog, some people may never understand the power of the relationship. 

 I sit at home and I often find myself literally staring at my dog and wondering what he thinks or even what he knows. "Is there a brain in there my beautiful baby boy?" I would often ask (and yes, even say outloud, because if my dog is around I am not "talking to myself!") In all honesty, I don't care, because him simply existing is enough! 

 For those of you who are dog parents will totally agree with me, but there is no explanation to this unspeakable bond between dog and human. This bond was instant. I always thought I saved Ryder, but he saved me! I know there will be a day when the only evidence of his existence is the many photos of him (and sometimes me!) on my phone; looking all stalker-ish and such. The hair on all my pillows, on my floor, my clothes, my shoes, my car... DNA covering my entire apartment...the dog bowl, the dog toy basket, the tare on the corner of my couch... So, in final thought, I want to write about, because he will only be a portion of my life, and I do not want to forget any moment of it. 

 This blog is to Ryder. To dog moms. To dog dads. To people who just love reading about life. To adventure. To joy. To a dog-gone amazing life!
