I rescued my dog from being put down. Five years later, he rescued me too.

Tomorrow marks 5 years since I got my dog home from the animal shelter. He was scheduled to be put down the day before I got him.

It’s been an amazing five years.

Who would’ve thought the one I saved would end up saving me right back?

No one at the shelter knew his exact birth date, so I decided his birthday would be January 1, a reminder that no matter what happens, we always get a chance to start again.

Here’s to our new beginnings. Here’s to our second chances. Here’s to us choosing life.

Happy New Year, everyone. 🐾✨
