My DOG Never Let Me Down (People Did)

In this video, I talk about why pets mean so much to us—especially as we get older. I share stories about my late dog Chelsea, my rescue dog Nugget, and even my attempt at becoming a cat person. Whether you're single, grieving, or just love your pet more than most people—you're in the right place.

🐾 Nugget, Keleigh, and Connor—my entire fur family—were all adopted from Friends of Burlington County Animal Shelter.

This place didn’t just save them… they saved me, too.

If this video touched you, and you believe in the healing power of pets, please consider donating. Every dollar helps another animal find a second chance—and maybe even become someone’s whole world.

💛 Thank you for helping give back to a shelter that changed my life.
