My Pet's Story
I didn't mean to rescue a dog that day. I was dropping off hurricane relief donations for work at a local shelter - just trying to do something kind. But then I saw him… this goofy, wide-smiling Cattle Dog lying on the ground like a total goofball, already mid-sploot. And just like that, I fell in love.

Ranger had scrapes on his legs, tested heartworm positive, and had clearly been through a lot - but his spirit? Still so full of love. I brought him home, nursed him back to health, and he quickly became the heart of our home (and the king of splooting).

He gives real hugs, sleeps between us every night, and never stops smiling. Ranger is playful, loyal, affectionate, and just the right amount of ridiculous. Whether he's zooming around the dog beach, running full-speed at the park, or just laying dramatically across the tile floor, he's always making us laugh.

Now, he's got a brother named Mac (also a Cattle Dog), and the two of them are inseparable partners in crime. But Ranger? He's the kind of dog who turns heads and warms hearts.

He may not have been part of the plan, but he’s the best thing that ever happened to us. And if there's one face that deserves to be on a beer label, it's Ranger - with his beachy vibes, heart-of-gold, and that big goofy smile.
