Dog Lessons From My Run In The Park

I start my day with a 4-mile run in the park every morning.  It’s the greatest gift I can give myself (and those around me as well😊)

This past Friday, I was wrapping up my last lap when I saw the most amazing thing. In front of me was a fellow runner jogging alongside his dog- that’s not unusual around here…What was remarkable was the dog that was sprinting WAS MISSING A LEG! The dog was fast, agile, and happy as can be!

Meet Finn😊 He’s an incredible dog who lost a limb during a car accident.

Finn demonstrates what we all can and should be- ADAPTABLE. RESILIENT. CORAGEOUS.
