The human behind Gordy Goes North
Same Roads. Kinder Days.
I’m driving north from Atlanta with my two dogs, Gordy and Hermy, stopping along the way to spend a day at a shelter in the towns we stay in. New places, good people, and the dogs who bring us together.
For safety, locations are shared on a delay.
