Transcript

00:00Oh my God, it is like, it's the most rewarding thing

00:04in the world.

00:04I'm like, I can't stop smiling thinking about him.

00:08I can't wait till I'm like, we're off this meetings

00:10when I'm off and I'm gonna go right upstairs and walk him.

00:13Like he is the absolute joy of my life right now.

00:17And it just felt like space when I walked in there.

00:22I just, one day I was like, I gotta, I just,

00:25I need to go like volunteer at a rescue.

00:29And so I just started Googling places in Nashville,

00:32reached out to one.

00:33And it was that day that he was there

00:37and the rescue brought him in from a shelter that day.

00:41And when I met him, I like instantly fell in love

00:44and there was no turning back at that point.

00:47And I just like, I'm obsessed with him.

00:50He is, he's everything.

00:52And actually, you know, ironically,

00:54what's connecting this conversation to my dog

00:58is in this work with Ziploc and what they're doing

01:01is they have these, he's a little bit of a puller,

01:05so we're gonna have leash training.

01:07And now I'm like a dog dad

01:09with only one hand available at any times.

01:12So Ziploc sent me these bags they have

01:15that are, they like stand up and stay open.

01:18So like, I'll have them on one leash.

01:19I can put his food in another.

01:21And these bags don't like tip over left or right,

01:24but it's a full circle moment for the dogs

01:28and for Teddy and I'm obsessed with him.

01:33I just love him.

01:34And I think he saved me just as much as I saved him.

01:37And I just, I'm so happy when I think about him

01:44and I'm so excited for whatever it is we do

01:48and where we go.
