Stephanie and Israel met several years ago at the dog park! Their dogs were part of a dog park gang that was thick as thieves! Over the years Stephanie and Israel stayed in touch and hiked with the dogs a few times a year. Stephanie made sure to stay in touch by sending Israel birthday wishes every year. In 2016 when Stephanie sent her birthday wish Israel decided to make his move. A few weeks later the two went out on a date. Two people, two dogs, one bonus dog, and the rest is history!
