Time is not only measured in months and years, but also in the cherished memories that are created along the road.

Just ask Ruger, a decent canine. He has earned a lot.

Ruger was just a puppy when he was adopted by Corie Bliss and her family more than a decade ago. He’s brought them joy every moment since then.

“We try to bring him with us everywhere,” Bliss told The Dodo. “He’s super loyal and loves his family.”

Naturally, as a puppy, Ruger formed a fast friendship with Bliss’ son, Dylan. Being just a little boy when they first met, Dylan has passed pretty much each and every milestone so far with Ruger by his side. And recently, Bliss found a lovely way to show it.

“I was looking at old pics, and came across Dylan’s first day of first grade pic with Ruger, when Ruger was a puppy,” Bliss said. “I wanted to recreate the picture the night of his high school graduation.”

And sure enough, it came out perfect:

Bliss couldn’t help but cry as she saw the two images side by side and the decades-long friendship that was recorded there:

She said, “Lots of running mascara.” Such a lot of memories.

Dylan concurs.

He told The Dodo, “Having Ruger with me during school was amazing. “I always remember returning home and being met by Ruger at the door, no matter what grade I was in.

Ruger is still generating memories despite being an elderly dog who is now having health issues.

There’s no slowing the passing of time, of course. But the legacy of love from dogs like Ruger never fades.
