00:00We're both very passionate about being in the snow.
00:09Look at that face, he's covered in snow.
00:15When we ski, we make eye contact and we just like know what each other is thinking.
00:21We get in this like flow state together that is unlike anything I've ever experienced.
00:28Yeah buddy!
00:33Why did you both start skiing in the first place?
00:36Loam came into my life after college.
00:40I was living in a city right outside of Boulder, Colorado.
00:45He was such a sweet puppy, but we hit eight months and I felt like I turned on the lights
00:52one morning and it was a completely different dog.
00:59He just became like the worst little menace you've ever met.
01:04I was doing everything in my power to wrangle him in, right, of like taking him to the dog
01:10park for an hour before work every morning, taking him for a walk at my lunch break and
01:15just like nothing was working.
01:17Then I got to a point where I was like, okay, we need to move to the mountains.
01:33He sees me putting on my snow pants.
01:35He starts yelling up a storm, jumping around, getting excited, trying to go outside.
01:43Then we load up and he pretty much leaps into the truck whenever he knows we're about to
01:48go skiing.
01:49I let him out of the truck while I gear up and he would just meow and pace until we're
01:55on the skin track.
01:57Once we get to the top, I say, you're gonna hate this.
02:03That's how I know he's ready to go.
02:12I think he loves the companionship that comes with it when he's making the eye contact,
02:16checking in with me, making sure we're on the same page.
02:20And him having that energy is what makes it the most fun for me.
02:25There's not that many activities where your dog gets to exert themselves and like have
02:29that free feeling.
02:35It's hard for me to imagine my life without Loam.
02:39So many people find this missing piece in another person and I found that in my dog.
02:45My life isn't just about taking care of me, it's about taking care of him and making sure
02:48that he has what he needs.
02:50I'm gonna give him the best life I can possibly give him every single day of his life.
