What if the smallest heartbeat in your home ended up shaping the biggest chapters of your life? Meet Mia — a shy little Havanese puppy who chose Paul’s family one spring night in 2007… and quietly became the glue that held them together for nearly eighteen years.
This episode is a warm, heartfelt trip through the memories of a dog who chased squirrels, crashed high-school soccer practice, comforted lonely coworkers, and waited at a bedroom door every day for the girl who went off to college. It’s about kids growing up, a house growing quieter, and a dog who never stopped loving the people she chose. It’s funny, nostalgic, emotional — and deeply human. If you’ve ever loved a family dog — really loved one — this story will hit home in all the right ways.
Click play and meet Mia — the one little dog who changed everything.
