Except for the past three years at Mom and Dad's, when I was in a single bed, the answer has always been: with me. Even in those single-bed years, she and I have been in the same room.
Eight years ago today, I graduated from Canine Companions for Independence and was "presented Claren."
So that means we have been together almost 3,000 days and nights. Of those, I think we have been apart only two nights. Once, when I rode in a cramped pickup to ride at the U.S. Equestrian Center for a day and once when my brother got married. It was on a boat and I feared Claren might want to go swimming.
Other than that ...
Thanks, Claren.

Well, she was fine without me. And when we were reunited, it was 15 seconds of ecstasy followed by "Hey, is that food I smell. Or another dog. Or a cat. Maybe my ball. I need to go check, but nice to see you, Matt."
No treats yet ..
