00:00Hi Hilary. Hi Dodo. Ready to meet your dream date? Oh, I'm so ready. Well, she just got here. Can you spot her? Let me see. Are you kidding me? Look at you. Hi, gorgeous. Oh, you trying to go swimming, baby. Are you ready to find your forever home? Yeah. If I didn't have five already, we'd have a home for you.
00:26Winnie, to start our date, I brought you a toy. We are looking for a forever home for Winnie. Someone who will give her the best rest of her life that she deserves. You have your own five rescue dogs. Do you go on hikes with them as well? Oh, yeah. We go on hikes every day. They're going to smell Winnie all over me and think that I was cheating. Hey, Winnie, look, I brought a camera.
00:52These photos we could give to your forever adopter. We have some good ones, but this is my favorite.
01:04My favorite is the first one I called you and you looked at me. She's so concerned about where Hilary went. Headed back with a paw making print.
01:15Winnie was looking for me. Winnie, are you looking for me? Are you looking for me? Oh, thank you for the
01:22way. We're going to put together this little kit, Winnie. Okay, here we go, Winnie. We want it to fit
01:28in the square. Winnie, did I ever tell you that nature is my favorite thing? Well, it's one of my top three
01:34favorite things. My other two are dogs and tennis. Well, now that I have babies, I should probably say
01:43baby dog in nature. Okay, ready, ready, set, paw. Okay, we'll wait for these to dry. We'll go get a
01:56puppuccino. Now we're in the little town, Winnie. You're going to be famous. You're going to be on
02:01the Dodo. Everyone's going to be stopping you going, Winnie, Winnie, I saw you on the road. I saw you,
02:07I saw you having a puppuccino. Hey, Winnie, I have good news and I have better news. One, I got you
02:15this yummy puppuccino. And two, I brought these lovely ladies out who said they want to meet you.
02:21They said they saw me with you and they were like, wow, I love your dog. And I said, guess what? It's
02:26not my dog, but it's a dog that needs to go to a forever home. Winnie, you're winning everyone's heart.
02:31I call her Winnie, Winnie. Winnie was found about two years ago. Someone just left, abandoned
02:39Winnie. And so she's been looking for her forever home for a little while and now it's
02:44happening. Only the good life now, I told her. I told her no looking back. Winnie, do you
02:55want to just lay down here and take a load off? You're such a sweetheart. I love you. Won't you
03:02make women find your family? And with the proper introduction, she can get along with other pets
03:08and with older children. That's what I heard. I heard, I mean, you know, the thing is, is
03:12I also heard it takes about two months for a dog to acclimate to their new home. So it's really
03:18important for people who rescue to give them that time to acclimate and to find themselves. It's a lot
03:24of newness, it's new sounds, it's new smells. Do your rescue dogs get along with your kids?
03:29Yes, they do. My rescue dogs get along with my kids perfectly. They love them. I think there's
03:36something about kids and animals that have the same innocence. And since that's something
03:42that you care a lot about, can you tell us about Hilleroo as well? Oh yeah. So Hilleroo,
03:47perfect segue, is an organization I started, which is my name and my late dog,
03:54Oh yeah, let's get cozy. And my late dog, Karoo's name. And Hilleroo brings kids who've been
04:01given up on and animals who have been abandoned together to help heal each other. And I'm so
04:07honored to have started it and then to have it find its way and its legs. Let's look at
04:11your paw prints. Oh my gosh, it's so cute. Winnie, you're winning. And at least one paw print
04:20would also go over there when it dries up. This one will go here. Yeah, maybe one.
04:27So, how was your Dota dream day, Hillary? Oh, it was great. It couldn't have been better.
04:35I had such a great time with Winnie today. We went hiking, we got a puppuccino. Cheers.
04:41Aw, good job. I definitely fell in love with her. I can't wait for her to find her forever.
