“I’d been isolated for over a year, quarantining totally on my own, and I had to find things to get me out of the house. The truck provided that,” Lewis said, referencing her 2021 song, “Puppy and a Truck.”

“I don’t have any kids, but this dog opened me up in so many ways — being responsible for a soul and caring for something outside of yourself. It’s been a really important lesson for me,” Lewis continued. “Kind of obvious, I guess, but I had no idea. I had fantasies of owning a white wolf. Instead, I ended up with a cockapoo.”
