One story she wants to tell over and over again is the Brooke family, thanks to one special member of the family: their dog named Ryder.Ryder never left his mother's side, accompanying her through the labor pains and then lying still obediently "watching over" the newborn baby...

When photographer Kristin arrived at Brooke's house, she was experiencing labor contractions. Ryder the dog was in Brooke's room, as if to "check" to see if the mother was okay. |

It continued to follow Brooke out. |

The dog followed closely with every move the mother made. Sometimes, he even jumped onto the bed to watch what was happening. |
