00:00When I first saw this dog, I knew I had to help her.
00:04Come here.
00:04So I decided to foster her.
00:06Not yet.
00:07You're such a good girl.
00:09Let me get inside those ears.
00:11Yeah.
00:12She was so anxious to be in a house.
00:16Oh, girl.
00:18Yeah, just outside.
00:20That first evening, she bit my dog.
00:22I panicked and decided it might be best for her to go to another foster home.
00:27But something told me not to give up on her.
00:31I knew that she was a sweetheart underneath all her anxiety and wanted to give her a chance.
00:37The rescue and I decided to get her a muzzle for the time being.
00:40I couldn't risk my own dog and I wasn't sure what else to do.
00:44When she first arrived, despite me showing her the dog bed multiple times, she slept on the floor.
00:50She was so hesitant about everything.
00:54Eventually, I realized she wasn't like any dog that I'd fostered before, and that was okay.
01:00So I learned how to read her.
01:01Come on.
01:02Come on.
01:03Come on.
01:04Come on.
01:05Come on.
01:06She would look to my dog for guidance, the dog she had once seen as a threat.
01:10And she just blossomed.
01:11Why are you so happy?
01:14Once she felt safe, little by little, she became more confident and secure.
01:19Why are you so happy?
01:20Are you so happy too?
01:21Are you so happy too?
01:22She finally slept in her dog bed.
01:25Next was a couch.
01:26Now you live on the couch?
01:28Now you live on the couch?
01:29Then she eventually joined me and my pup on the human bed, and we discovered her goofy side.
01:38And then a few hours later, she started playing with toys for the first time.
01:43Keep going.
01:44Oh my God, you're so smart.
01:46That felt like a turning point.
01:47She thrived on our pack walks and learned how to dog by observing other dogs.
01:57We took her to the beach, and she was so happy.
02:02You're your dad.
02:04You're your dad.
02:06You're getting wet.
02:09Oh my God.
02:11I think about how far she's come, and I can't believe it.
02:17I'm so happy I could help her become who she is.
02:21What are you doing?
