Soberdogs

Welcome to Soberdogs — The Raw Truth About Addiction, Prison, and Recovery.

I’m Kyle Ruggeri, AKA, K-Ruggs – The Soberdog.
I’m a Certified Addiction Recovery Coach (CARC) — but before that, I was a full-blown drug addict and alcoholic, lost in the chaos.

I spent 4 years in New York State prison, with 390 days in solitary confinement. That wasn’t just time — it was pure misery, madness, and survival. I’ve been through withdrawals in a jail cell, fights, hopelessness, and waking up every day not wanting to live.

For years, I hid from my past. But facing it head-on changed everything. That’s when Soberdogs was born — a channel that exposes the raw, unfiltered truth about addiction, prison life, mental health, and what it really takes to rebuild your life.

This ain’t your sugar-coated recovery story.
This is real talk for real people. No fluff. No BS.

🐾 And yeah, my dogs helped save my life. They inspired this entire thing.
Because Sobriety Doesn’t = Misery — it means finally living.
