Transcript

00:00When I saw this clip, I immediately knew I had to follow his story and figure out where

00:16he went next.

00:38As a dodo producer, I've become very skilled at tracking animals down on the internet.

00:43So I managed to find the Instagram of the girl who was fostering this dog.

00:47And they lived in the same city as me.

00:53I got in touch with her and we ended up video chatting for two hours.

00:58And we had no idea really that internal trauma we were going to be working through.

01:12She knew she had to take him home with her and show him the good life or he might never

01:16get adopted.

01:19After our video chat, she started texting me updates of his progress every day.

01:24What do you think big brave boy?

01:27She texted me the first time he sat on her lap.

01:32She texted me the first time he got Foley on the couch, which was a huge day for all

01:37of us.

01:38This is Simba's first time ever being all the way on the couch.

01:41Are you a couch puppy?

01:45He was getting braver every day.

01:46Yeah.

01:47He's standing on me.

01:51We decided to go on an adventure together to make a video of Simba's progress.

01:55Do you want to go for a walk?

01:58Yeah.

01:59Have his do not pet harness, his do not pet bandana.

02:05I was on FaceTime as they got ready for the day.

02:08And then I was meeting them in person for the first time.

02:13Simba was even cuter in real life.

02:16Are you so excited?

02:21We had the best time and throughout the day, I really realized we could be real friends.

02:29Good job.

02:30What do you think dude?

02:31Simba's saying, today was nice.

02:32You're a gentle shy little dog.

02:33Good boy.

02:34I became Simba's designated dog sitter when LB was away.

02:52He was doing so much better and really ready to be adopted.

02:56And then I thought, what better way to use the Dodo's amazing reach than to find Simba's

03:02When we posted the video, I couldn't believe how many people responded to it.

03:05And sure enough, it worked.

03:06We found the perfect home for him.

03:09LB of course FaceTimed me right after dropping him off.

03:13Okay, so I just handed Simba off to his hopeful new family and they're amazing.

03:22And he has a sister who looks exactly like him and it's just amazing to see people that

03:28are ready to love him the way that I love him.

03:33Simba's life was completely turned right side up after getting rescued, but LB and I's lives

03:37are also changed forever.

03:41He became best friends, got an apartment together.

03:48We started a few hobbies together.

03:53I just love that LB was helping Simba out of the kindness of her own heart.

04:00And it just goes to show that you never know the funny ways in which that kindness will

04:04come back to you.
