Elyana Smith

This was in New York City.

And...

They took her, and she went, and she did a great job, whatever.

And then she got adopted, which was great by my neighbors, so I get to keep seeing her, whatever.

And they filmed this in October, but they don't air it until February.

That's a little inside scoop.

And so come February, the local brewery is having a public screening.

I'm allowed at the brewery, but not the Puppy Bowl studio.

And...

I got to bring Juniper, who's now like eight, nine months old, big, full of energy, but scared of nothing, very confident.

And we're at the puppy bowl, we're watching all the puppies do whatever they do, and people are coming up to me and wanting to meet her and asking questions and taking pictures.

And then this woman came over to me, and she started showing me pictures of Juniper when she was a puppy.

And I was like, this is so weird.

Why is this lady showing me pictures of my puppy?

And then she explains excitedly that she was the one who got to take Juniper to New York.

And in this moment, I knew that I had set this dog up for the best life, and her nine other siblings, and her mom, and that I had made a change greater than myself.

And all of this was so important.

But I also knew that that woman stole my moment.

And I would never forgive her for it.
