00:00The Queen?
00:02I ain't with it.
00:05Gigi kept her distance for a while.
00:07We kind of have big news.
00:09Now do you want me to tell the news?
00:11You should tell them.
00:13Of course I'm going to tell you all.
00:15So we're going to foster a dog.
00:17I'm excited, she's excited.
00:19Alright sis, let me talk to you.
00:21This is the last day you get the crib to yourself.
00:23Tomorrow, we're bringing home your foster sister.
00:25That's right.
00:27I wanted to have a discussion with Gigi.
00:29Just to set the energy right.
00:35Gigi was like, what is this thing I'm looking at?
00:39We were introducing them patiently.
00:41It was a big adjustment for her.
00:44A lot of staring by Gigi.
00:46She was like, our whole dynamic has changed.
00:53I decided to foster Aria because Malinois were really flooding the shelters.
00:59Just a baby.
01:02I knew it was going to be something that Gigi and I were both going to have to adjust for.
01:06I was just like, here we go.
01:08So we did a lot of things.
01:10Whether they did sit and stay together.
01:12Or different type of drills and exercises.
01:14We did some together and we did some individually.
01:18They got to kind of learn from each other.
01:22Good girl.
01:23And that helped with their relationship.
01:30Good girl.
01:34For Gigi, I started to see her warm up to Aria around the four to six week mark.
01:42When I saw Gigi starting to warm up to Aria, I felt a little bit better.
01:45It was a relief for me.
01:50When Gigi put her paw on Aria's head and I licked her ear.
01:54And then Aria leaned into it.
01:56I was like, okay.
01:57I think I have to adopt this dog now.
02:02Guess what Dodo fam?
02:03It's official.
02:04We adopted Aria.
02:07Oh my goodness.
02:09She's found her home.
02:11Me being a black man and having a pit bull.
02:13We're always going to have those stereotypes.
02:16And now having a Malinois.
02:18There's always that group that's like, oh they're both so pretty.
02:20And the other group is like, oh they're so scary.
02:22We still have those people who will cross the street.
02:25Good morning ladies.
02:26We're going to have an important discussion today.
02:28We're going to talk about Ural's breed and the stigma behind it.
02:31They say you're scary, aggressive, just a danger to society with that sort of thing.
02:36They say you're bonkers.
02:38They give up on you because you're energy level.
02:40Nobody can handle you.
02:42I'm here to say, guess what?
02:44That's okay.
02:45That's what we're here for.
02:46We're here to work through that.
02:48I think Aria's helped soften the view of us.
02:52I think the most special thing about adopting Aria is that she was a missing beast.
02:57And it's made it even more special because her breed is flooding all the shelters.
03:02And everybody's giving up on this type of breed because of their energy levels.
03:06But she just fit.
03:21She just fit.
03:22She just fit.
