Coming Soon

The Journey of Love and Resilience continues……

Ruby's books are more than a collection of stories. They are an invitation to share the extraordinary journey of Ruby, a remarkable dog whose life embodied resilience, love, the power of second chances, and the profound joy she brought to everyone she met. After Ruby’s passing, the torch of her legacy was passed onto two other members of her family tribe.

Jake and Sugar became official “Ambassadogs” at the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport.

Think of a large metro airport as a city whose population changes daily. The fascinating people, emotions, and stories are boundless. A place where travelers are unafraid to fleetingly share slivers of their lives with Sugar, Jake, and myself.

So, here we are with our third book, ‘ Airport Dogs,’ which is nearly finished.

How was it that two pit bull mixes landed their volunteer jobs at an airport hosting millions of visitors per year? What was the public’s reaction?

Sorry, no spoilers here except, perhaps, these photos. Then again, they tell quite a story unto themselves.

Stay tuned!
