Red Dog!

So this movie recently came out here in Australia :)



anyone and everyone,
Please see the movie “Red Dog” its not just for aussies and dog lovers, its a movie for everyone! Hilarious, heartfelt, romantic, gorgeous scenery, wonderful cast. 
I could really relate to the story of the main character John. I’m an American who moved out to Perth Australia two and a half years ago. Less than two months after living here i set out to get a puppy. Initially i wanted a ‘proper’ border collie, or some other lovely purebred dog. While looking at all of the dogs at the RSPCA i came across the cutest little brown dog i had ever set eyes on. Her bright yellow eyes and high strung nature captured my heart :) Ruby the Red Cloud Kelpie. She’s my mate, my best friend, the most incredible dog in the entire world. I feel so special to be her master, but more special to be her playmate, running buddy and fellow nap taker :) As i sit here on my couch writing this post she is lying with her upper body on my lap, my arm around her neck, and her head resting on my arm even while i’m typing. 
Basically what i’m here to say is that Ruby, my “red dog,” and my ‘lil ruby,
I love you!
