That poor kid. I dont think I will ever complain about my life again. Orphaned at 5 with such a close bond to his dad like that. What a strong young man.

I cried to
This kid lost his parents instantly and still had to recover from a brain injury without them. My mother had a stroke that paralyzed the entire right side of her body. The mental therapy, the physical therapy, the waiting. None of it was easy, he's a very strong young man indeed
*Ricochet and Ian's bond through their love of water* *not only brings a wave of healing love to each other but,* *it Ricochets out a vibration of grace to everyone and everything around them.😻* *Thank you Dodo for sharing your love of animal's with Us on a daily basis.😘*

Oh this is one of the best comments for a very long time. I am gonna "borrow" this one. So good.
This literally brought me to tears after seeing this whole video. I'm VERY proud of Ian. I know that he was scared of going back into the ocean to surf, but then Ricochet came into his life and brought back his courage to surf with her.
So nice to see Ricochet and Ian reunited.
Seems silly but maybe Ian's dad came down to Ricochet in the only way he could to help Ian. Definitely heaven sent.

part of his dad's plan definitely. ❤️😇
Such a sad but beautiful story. Animals are amazing creatures. Keep up the great work, Ian!
The "Surfice dog" vest that Ricochet wears is so adorable!!! Such a heartwarming story :)

That's so cute.
kudos to the aunt for taking care of the family. it is never easy. hope they are all doing well.
Both of them are so sweet! Animals help so much! A horse encouraged me to get rid of my cane and walk independently by walking her without my cane and hanging onto her. Now I walk all by myself and it’s quite exciting. Hopefully Ian will get there one day! Dogs are truly amazing.

Such a sad loss for this young man. I’m so glad he has such a loving family and support team. This story brought tears.
Its so heart warming to see dogs reunite! I see a lot of comments saying " oh, he doesn't look happy at all" he has been through a lot and sometimes even i look not so happy in an exiting moment, i mean thats just how some ppl work.
Amazing trainer. Incredible dog. A beautiful child, Bless You, Ian
Best to Ian in the coming years. A remarkable person.
noone in this world makes me cry so many times except The Dodo
You did more in your life Ian, than most of us ever will...
Wonderful people and wonderful group.....and great animal support!
She brought this dog from all the way where she lives to help out a boy that was in an accident that used to Surf with his dad this is just the sweetest thing ever
This is sooo bittersweet, in that the parents were killed, the pics looked like they were a great mom n dad. But a great ending & a BIG high five to all family, friends & caregivers who stepped in to help Ian with Richochet and his recovery. Animals & humans together make great connections! Thanx DoDo, you rock!
Dogs are so pure...
God bless and be with all the angels on earth like these people and animals.
Outstanding. Amazing dog and an incredible young man.
Awesome boy, dog, families
Keep it up Ian, you’re an inspiration to me. When life goes sideways or in reverse, head down and keep walking forward. Thank you!
I’ve watched much too many of these dodo videos lol I’m all cried out. Ian and Ricochet are so sweet together ❤️ Good luck to brave Ian and that sweet angel 🐶

This was an amazing video to watch and brought me to tears again. I had previously read the book about Ricochet, and seeing this after having read the book, brought up my own experiences with dogs. I believe wholeheartedly that we are truly blessed to have dogs in our life
I've been following Ric for years now. I don't know of any other soul who does so much good for so many people...
Love you Ian and that beautiful dog is so amazing!!! Can't imagine myself without a dog! I love them so much!
