You've got some sugar on your muzzle and one silly grey whisker. But enough zest and love for life for the both of us. I am forever grateful to have you by my side. You are such a special soul.

How do I write a post about Evelyn? She is a lightning bolt that, on May 22, 2021, struck the earth in dog-shape, and learned to live among its creatures. She is a guardian angel and an imp all at once. She is my most steadfast friend and my closest collaborator. Every morning as I put my shoes on to take her outside, she flings her body high into the air with joy. She is sharp-edged and beautiful and deeply intelligent. How grateful I am that she struck the earth that day, and then found me one year later.
