This morning walk could have ended in the hospital—or worse. But instead, it ended with my dog Ruger proving that love sometimes looks like courage. 🐾❤️
One second, we were strolling by the lake. The next, a deadly copperhead was coiled just steps away. I froze. Ruger didn’t. He leapt between me and danger, risking his own life to protect mine.
I’ve always known dogs were loyal—but today, Ruger became so much more. My guardian. My hero. 🐶✨
