Read about Richochet

I know this may be more appropriate for the lounge or the pets group..but it seemed like something everyone would appreciate seeing.
If you want to move it Mods...feel free.

1. thanks so much...i will be donating
to that very worthy cause. richochet is adorable, and so is his friend patrick. been feeling sorry for myself because i'm having surgery next week, but i was reminded that many people have struggles far greater than my own. i hope that young man is able to walk to receive his diploma.

2. It is truly amazing. Just when we feel that we are at a horrible low,
we hear or see a story of someone else, and realize that we are not as bad off as we thought....

I have had the same experience recently.

Good luck with your surgery. Hope it all turns out better than you had imagined.

6. Is there a video of a dog actually surfing by themselves?
And by surfing I mean standing up for more than 12 milliseconds, withouth the help of people, before jumping or falling off the board?

alone and chooses which wave to come in on.

14. I didn't see one of a dog surfing by themselves only of a dog repeatedly jumping off a
surfboard while humans tried to force him to stay on and of dogs being forced to sit on a surfboard while humans do the surfing on the same board.

If there is some other video, please post a link.
That's why I asked!!!
