Happy 15th birthday to our amazing boy, Ari! đ
Rescued at about 1 year old from a shelter in Waco in 2011, youâve been the textbook definition of the perfect dog ever since. đž
Weâve had our challenges togetherâthose strong herding instincts led to a bit of nipping at the beginning, and you were terrified of cars and stairs (living on the 3rd floor was an adventure!). You battled heartworm and demodex mange, but you powered through it all with your loving heart.
Once we got you back to full health, you became our loyal military pup, traveling with us all over the countryâWaco TX, Annapolis MD, Enterprise AL, Honolulu HI, Heron OH, and El Paso TX đ.
2024 gave us some real scares, and we got a taste of what life might be like without you. So today, we celebrate your 15-ish birthday, and we are beyond grateful for every moment we have with you. We love you more than words can say, Ari! đśâ¤ď¸
