00:00Wow. Hi, precious.

00:05She's happy.

00:08Hey, honey.

00:12Oh, my God.

00:16Oh, my God.

00:18Baby.

00:20She was so docile and so just sweet,

00:24which tells me, like, she probably had a good, like, puppy life.

00:28And when she got older, family that had her probably just neglected her.

00:41We were like, OK, we'll come back in the morning.

00:43Like, obviously, you need help. We'll come back, find you.

00:46We're going to help you.

00:48So we kept trying to walk away and she wasn't having it.

00:51She kept following us.

00:53And we're like, you know what? Let's just take her home tonight

00:56and we'll give her that in the morning to make sure that she actually gets help.

01:02We kept her overnight. She stayed in my room and she was definitely a little confused.

01:06But she was so sweet and I could tell she was in a lot of pain.

01:20She did so well.

01:22The vet said that she was the nicest dog he's ever seen.

01:27He asked if we would keep her for a few weeks while we try and find a home for her,

01:33just to make sure that she heals right and that she doesn't get back on the streets.

01:38I was like, we have to find her a home because I travel too much.

01:42I'm always moving.

01:44But I actually had a feeling a few months back.

01:47I was like, I kind of want to rescue a dog and bring her to my dad in Alaska

01:51I just want to rescue a dog and bring her to my dad in Alaska

01:54because he's just living up in the north by himself.

01:58He needs a dog. He needs a companion.

02:08It took a little bit of convincing because obviously we had never met the dog before.

02:12But he eventually said yes.

02:14He said yes.

02:20Her neck healed completely before we flew to Alaska.

02:23Her fur was even starting to grow back.

02:27I got a kennel and everything I needed to fly with her.

02:30We got all of her vaccines.

02:39He works from home. He's an engineer.

02:41So he's just always home, which is another reason I thought they'd be perfect for Taylor.

02:45She has a lot of separation anxiety.

02:48He brings her absolutely everywhere.

02:53He's also a fisherman, so he brings her down to the boat with him.

02:58I think they challenge each other because she's still a puppy.

03:01So he has to train her and learn.

03:04I think they're really happy together.

03:06I really do feel like she chose us because we weren't going to bring her home that night,

03:10but she just kept following us.

03:12It was just perfect.
