We had dogs at home, ever since I was around nine, and until I left to live on my own. I loved them. I still do. After many years, mom and dad decided to get a puppy again. And when I met this little guy, I instantly fell in love with him too.

Fenix is a handful, but he's also super smart, and cuddly, and friendly, and so much DOG that your heart melts. He's the embodiment of living in the here and now. 

Mom sent me a picture of him waiting by the door one day. His earnest anticipation, waiting to see what's on the other side of the door, reminded me of that feeling.

The wait before the adventure.
