Rye Thomas, the creative force behind the Washington D.C. based project Soft Punch, talks with us about his 11 year old Pit Bull mix Molé (November is Adopt a Senior Pet month!) and his previous dog Dexter who both comforted him on his ongoing battle with a debilitating illness.

Soft Punch's latest release Above Water is out now on Bad Friends Records and available wherever you buy or stream music.

Rye chose to give a shout out to the Animal Welfare League of Arlington whose mission is to improve the lives of animals and people by providing resources, care, and protection. To adopt, foster, volunteer or donate visit https://www.awla.org/

He also would like to give props to his trusted dog walkers from Brookline Dog Walking who offer training and boarding services as well.
