My trail runner, mountain climbing, and fellow yogi had a special bond with her dog, Bailey. It was a kind of friendship and bond that only one can understand if you are a pet parent. One filled with unconditional love, respect for one another, mountain hikes and adventures, and that quick look over and you know exactly what they are thinking. That kind of love. As a dog mom myself, it always hurts my heart to know that one-day these beautiful souls leave this planet. But they leave each one of us with memories, ones that we will hold in our hearts fur-ever and ever.

Honoring Frontline Heroes

Every evening at 7pm, our neighborhood comes out with big smiles and optimism. We bring our dogs, partners, cute kiddos and sometimes some wine to help honor healthcare and frontline heroes ❤️ Without their sacrifices and dedication to help us fight this pandemic, we wouldn’t be able to conquer these scary and strange times.
