Ep. 67: A Detour Named Dog: The decision to get a pandemic puppy

I’m not a dog person. So why is there a giant dog crate in the corner of my living room?

Blame the grandkids. All three of them. Grandkids have a way of cracking open your heart. And that’s what happened. My heart cracked open.

During the pandemic, the grandkids were begging for pet and settled on a gerbil. Then one day our 9-year-old granddaughter announced, “I don’t know why we’re talking gerbils when we should be talking puppies.”

That was the moment. Our hearts opened wide to a pandemic puppy.

Listen to Part 1 of our journey to create a generation of dog lovers. It’s the story of how two non-dog lovers became pet people to transform their family forever into dog people.

It all started with the decision to love one puppy for life. And oh, what a life changer it has been.
