Last night, while I was heading to the kitchen for some water, my knee suddenly buckled and I collapsed onto the floor. The sharp pain left me breathless for a few seconds — and before I could even call out, Bruno came running.

He didn’t bark or panic. Instead, he stood close, his massive frame steady and calm, watching me with those deep, focused eyes. Then, as I tried to move, he carefully pressed his body next to mine, lowering himself just enough for me to lean on him. With quiet strength, he helped me back to my feet — one slow, sure step at a time.

Standing there, my hand on his broad shoulder, I felt more than relief. I felt trust. His heartbeat, his warmth, his unshakable presence — it was like he was saying, “I’ve got you. You’re safe.”

People often think Rottweilers are just tough or intimidating. But my Bruno? He’s pure loyalty and heart. My guardian, my best friend, my peace in chaos.

That night, I didn’t just stand up again — I was reminded that love doesn’t always speak. Sometimes, it just stands beside you and refuses to let you fall. 🖤🐾

🚨K-9 Riddick was killed in a line of duty after his handler's vehicle was rammed by a suspect during a vehicle pursuit.
"We are very sad to report the death of Nampa Police K-9 Riddick. The patrol SUV that Riddick was riding in was rammed by a suspect during a police pursuit. The vehicle rolled off the roadway and crashed. Riddick’s handler, Officer Cody Huss, was treated for his injuries and released from the hospital. K-9 Riddick died at the scene.
Riddick was one of the 12 K-9s in our Nampa Police K-9 Unit – the largest in Idaho. He was a 3 1/2 year-old German Shepherd who was trained and certified in apprehension and drug detection. He served with the Nampa Police Department for 2 years. Officer Huss and K-9 Riddick were assigned to a late shift patrol team, where they were relied upon each shift to help keep our community safe.
It is the wish of Officer Huss and the K-9 Unit to hold a public service of remembrance for K-9 Riddick. Plans for the ceremony have begun. We will share more details as they become available.
Thank You for your support and your condolences during this difficult time."
Rest Easy K-9 Riddick💙🕊️

🚨K-9 ROAM UPDATE: little set back today. His abdomen drain came out but only because he's got a little infection going on where his leg was removed. Dr. had to go in and cut out some tissue and clean out the wound. Waiting on culture results to see exactly what we are dealing with. Keep the prayers coming! No worries though he's still a happy boy!

Get well soon K-9 Roam❤️‍🩹💙

When he arrived, he wouldn’t let anyone come near. He slept with his eyes open. Any sudden movement, and he’d run. It was as if he lived always ready to flee. I spent two weeks just watching him. Not trying to touch. Just leaving food nearby and speaking softly.

Today, I sat in the yard as always — and he came. He leaned against me. Slowly, like someone who still carries fear but wants to try. And there, with his nose resting on my arm, I cried. Because it wasn’t just about trust. It was about everything he had to unlearn in order to stay.

I took a selfie of us afterward. With red eyes. Both of us.

This stray dog… 🐕
He looked exhausted and painfully hungry — no one to care for him, no proper food to eat. The only thing he could do was rummage through garbage piles along the roadside, hoping to find a scrap of food just to survive. But even then, what he found was never truly edible…

He bent down to lick from a puddle of dirty, stagnant water — mixed with grime and rotting trash 🥀. The stench was awful, yet he had no choice. Hunger pushed harder than disgust ever could. Sometimes, he’d chew on spoiled leftovers, knowing it might make him sick, but he had to — because staying alive was all that mattered.

His eyes, gazing quietly at the people and cars passing by, seemed to plead for kindness. But no one stopped. No one even looked. His little world was made of nothing but loneliness and hunger 🥺.

The life of a stray dog is far harsher than most can imagine. To live without a “home” or a “touch of love” means every single day is a battle — scavenging through trash, fighting to simply exist…

If only one kind soul could see him and reach out a helping hand, maybe he wouldn’t have to suffer like this anymore 🙏💔.

❤️‍🩹K9 Roam continues his healing journey at home❤️‍🩹🐾
"Loyalty carved in bone. Courage stitched in every scar.

A protector's heart, unbroken, unbound, unyielding.

After being stabbed multiple times and losing a leg last week, K9 Roam continues his healing journey at home. As they say, you cannot keep a good dog down.

Get well soon good boy.

They left me in a box. No blanket. No goodbye. Just the sound of my own heartbeat echoing off the cardboard. 💔
I tried to move, but my back legs wouldn’t work. So I just lay there — small, cold, and waiting for someone who would never come.

When the lid opened, I thought I was dreaming. Gentle hands lifted me out of the darkness and whispered, “You’re safe now, little one.” They gave me a new name — Shrimpina. Tiny, but strong. Broken, but still loved. 🧡

Now I sleep in warm arms instead of empty boxes. I wobble when I walk, but every shaky step means I’m still here — still loved, still fighting, still free. ❤️
