Because she's a widdle baby.

因為她是個小嬰兒

She's my widdle baby, that's why.

她是我的小寶貝，這就是原因。

This, everybody, is my dog, and her name is Ria.

各位，這是我的狗，它的名字叫 Ria。

She is a rescue from the south, a breed, and she is full of love.

她是從南方救回來的，是一個品種，充滿了愛。

Honestly, without a doubt, with zero bias, I think she's the best dog probably ever to exist.

老實說，毫無疑問，我認為它是有史以來最好的狗。

She just loves and trusts everybody we meet, which is very cute, but also, it's a little weird.

她喜歡並信任我們遇到的每一個人，這一點非常可愛，但也有點奇怪。

It's kind of worrying.

這有點令人擔憂。

You may wonder, how did we get Ria?

你可能會問，我們是怎麼得到詠歎調的？

How are we so lucky to be blessed with literally the best dog?

我們怎麼會如此幸運，能擁有最好的狗？

It all started with Kelly.

這一切都源於凱莉。

She told me one day she really wanted to get a dog and that we should adopt.

有一天，她告訴我她很想養一隻狗，我們應該領養。

Initially, I felt really hesitant about it.

起初，我真的很猶豫。

Don't get me wrong, I like dogs, and I've had dogs before, but I knew what they came with.

別誤會我的意思，我喜歡狗，以前也養過狗，但我知道狗的習性。

Primarily, lots of hair.

主要是頭髮多。

I also felt super busy at the time, and adding things like taking care of a dog felt like too much stuff.

當時我也覺得自己超級忙，再加上照顧狗之類的事情，感覺事情太多了。

It's not something you can do as a hobby.

這不是業餘愛好能做的事。

It's a life that you have to keep alive.

這是你必須保持活力的生活。

An adorable, little baby life when you're so cute and little baby.

可愛的小寶寶生活，當你是如此可愛的小寶寶。

My heart was icy cold, and I didn't really wanna take on this new responsibility, but Kelly was sure this was gonna be a good idea, and I wasn't, so I don't know.

我的心冰冷冰冷的，我真的不想承擔這個新的責任，但是凱莉確信這是個好主意，而我不是，所以我不知道。

Who am I to stand in the way?

我有什麼資格阻擋？

So we made a plan to foster a dog for a little while to see if it was indeed a good idea.

於是，我們計劃寄養一隻狗一段時間，看看這是否真的是個好主意。

Kelly did all the planning and collecting information and research about fostering and adopting, and eventually, she found a sweet, chunky Ria ready to join somebody's family.

凱莉做了所有的計劃，收集了關於寄養和收養的資訊和研究，最終，她找到了一個可愛、胖乎乎的芮婭，準備加入別人的家庭。

The listing said that she was mellow-tempered and loved to snuggle, which made Kelly think she'd be a great fit.

資訊上說她脾氣溫和，喜歡依偎，這讓 Kelly 覺得她很合適。

Ria was located all the way in the South, states away, but getting her was actually pretty simple.

詠雅遠在南方，離這裡有好幾個州，但要找到她其實很簡單。

We contacted the organization who set everything up.

我們聯繫了負責安排一切的組織。

They told us to meet in a parking lot where they were going to distribute all the other dogs to all the other families.

他們讓我們在一個停車場集合，他們要把其他所有的狗分給其他所有的家庭。

When they arrived, they gave Ria some final shots, they gave us some paperwork and a leash, and then we went.

他們到達後，給詠歎調打了最後一針，給了我們一些文件和狗鏈，然後我們就走了。

She didn't even know who we were, but when we opened the car door, she just jumped in with no questions.

她甚至不知道我們是誰，但當我們打開車門時，她就不由分說地跳了進來。

She was very, very trusting.

她非常非常信任我。

Hmm.

嗯

You're very trusting.

你很容易相信別人。

Too trusting.

過於信任。

And...

At the beginning, things started off well enough.

一開始，一切都很順利。

However, I was worried about leaving her alone all day because both Kelly and I had to go to work.

不過，我擔心把她一個人留在家裡一整天，因為凱莉和我都要上班。

We'd feed her breakfast, let her go potty, and go off to work.

我們會喂她吃早餐，讓她上廁所，然後去上班。

Normally, you'd think a dog in a new, unfamiliar place would be more timid and maybe hiding in a spot or acting out in some way.

通常情況下，你會認為一隻狗在一個陌生的新地方會更加膽小，可能會躲在某個地方或以某種方式表現出來。

But when I came home, she would poke her nose through the door like a bird trying to get a little seed, which is adorable.

但當我回家時，她會像小鳥一樣把鼻子探進門，試圖得到一點種子，非常可愛。

And it makes me think that she's just sitting there waiting all day for us to come home.

這讓我覺得，她只是整天坐在那裡等我們回家。

She was starting to win me over, but despite her being literally the best little baby to ever bless this Earth, I just couldn't live like this.

她開始贏得我的心，但儘管她是地球上最棒的小寶寶，我還是無法忍受這樣的生活。

It made me feel like I needed to vacuum everything.

這讓我覺得我需要用吸塵器吸乾一切。

All the time.

一直都是

The line that I drew on the sand was when it came to getting into bed.

我在沙子上畫的線是上床睡覺的時候。

We got her her own bed, and she was allowed to sleep on the couch, but I didn't want her allowed in bed because I wanted to sleep in a blanket and not a pile of fur.

我們給她買了自己的床，她可以睡沙發，但我不想讓她睡在床上，因為我想睡在毯子裡，而不是睡在一堆毛皮裡。

Hey, babe, I'm going to bed.

嘿，寶貝，我要去睡覺了。

That was the couch.

那是沙發。

Which pile is the bed in again?

床在哪一堆？

The only problem was that she didn't want to be left alone.

唯一的問題是，她不想一個人待著。

She was desperately wanting to be in bed to snuggle, as per her biography.

按照她的傳記，她非常想躺在床上依偎著。

But I stood firm, like a psychopath, and made her stay in her doggy bed on the floor.

但我像個神經病一樣堅定地讓她待在地板上的狗床上。

And she did, because as a good girl, the couple of weeks of fostering that we had her were coming to a close, and we had to decide if we were going to adopt her fully or not.

她確實是這樣做的，因為作為一個好女孩，我們寄養她的幾個星期即將結束，我們必須決定是否要完全收養她。

Night after night, she requested bed access, and I kept denying her.

夜復一夜，她要求上床，我一直拒絕她。

But how many times has she moved families?

但她搬過幾次家？

What crime did she commit to deserve a nomad life?

她犯了什麼罪，要過流浪生活？

And who am I to deny her a family, a belonging, a home to snuggle in?

我又有什麼資格拒絕給她一個家庭、一個歸屬、一個可以依偎的家呢？

Okay, all right, baby, I'm sorry.

好吧，好吧，寶貝，我很抱歉。

You can go to bed.

你可以上床睡覺了。

I'm sorry I was ever rude to you or cold to you.

我很抱歉曾經對你無禮或冷淡。

Can you ever find it in your little doggy heart to forgive me?

你的小狗心腸能原諒我嗎？

Obviously, you know this.

顯然，你知道這一點。

We ended up adopting her as a full-time puppy.

最後，我們收養了她作為一隻全職小狗。

We were happy with the decision.

我們對這一決定感到滿意。

She was happy with the decision.

她對這個決定很滿意。

If time machines existed, and I could go back in time and meet myself when I didn't want to adopt, there would be consequences.

如果有時光機，我可以回到過去，在我不想領養的時候遇見我自己，那一定會有後果。

Ultimately, Rhea has been an amazing dog, and all I can be is thankful.

最後，瑞亞是一隻了不起的狗，我只能心存感激。

Thankful to Rhea, and thankful to Kelly for finding our perfect puppy baby.

感謝瑞亞，感謝凱莉為我們找到了完美的小狗寶貝。
