Saying goodbye to my dog Odom

GEORGE COUROS
About this episode
I wanted to share some of the story of Odom and my love for my dog. If you have lost a dog before, this might be tough to listen to but I want to have this for my kids in the future. It has been an incredibly hard experience but I am so glad I had Odom in my life because I am better for it.
