258: T saved her dog

I have two children, one boy and one girl. Actually they’re not children, they’re adults and they’re on their own now of course. But I still have a couple of young lives that I’m responsible for. I’m talking about my two dogs, Lilly and Fenway, they are both Yorkies, and obviously I would do anything for those little pups. They’re actually getting up there in dog years now – they’re 12 and 13. But they’re in good health so far, we go for a walk twice a day, and they still love chasing a ball sometimes. But I know they are in their golden years so I’m trying to appreciate every minute I have with them. I think anyone who’s a dog lover can identify with wanting to protect your dog from any type of harm that might come their way. I mean, I don’t want them to run into the street, I don’t want them to eat something that might be harmful, and I surely don’t want them to get into a fight with another dog. My guest today goes by the nickname “T”. Not the word “tea”, just the letter “T”. She found herself in a situation where her dog was in trouble. And she had to make a split-second decision. And I’m gonna do something here that I don’t normally do – I’m gonna tell you ahead of time that today, T and her wonderful dog are doing fine. The story does have a happy ending. I don’t usually have spoilers here in the opener, but I know some listeners would not want to hear a story if the dog doesn’t make it. And I don’t blame you – I wouldn’t want to hear that either. But you’re safe with this one. So I hope you enjoy the story of T, and how she saved her dog’s life.
