About this episode
Mikey and Randie Chapman honor their beloved dog Groot, reflecting on his life and the impact he had on their family.
For this episode you must love dogs and should bring tissues, because everybody’s crying—especially Mikey and Randie. For their second EP back, the Chapmans talk about…Groot. The dog clacking in all of the episodes and posing in all of the logos. Their first baby. The soul that made them a family before the human littles entered the world. Why is Groot the focus of this episode? Because after 10 long years, Groot was laid to rest after his year-long battle with Mast Cell Cancer. So to honor him the Chapmans share his origin story, their favorite moments with him, what the end of his life was like, what they would tell anyone parenting a senior dog, and more. Later, having no fight in her, Randie leads the PDA and the couple express gratitude for one another. Tune in and the Chapmans thank you for all of the love.
