When I first got Parker, I was a young journalist working in Ithaca, New York. I got him as an 8-week year old puppy and we lived alone for two years.

Once I got a job in NYC, Parker moved to South Jersey to live with my retired parents — and an acre of wooded land. So now, Parker is living his best retirement life.
