00:00 I'm asking nicely.
00:02 Please.
00:04 Please stand up.
00:06 Okay.
00:08 Is there a guy in that car?
00:10 Strong man?
00:12 One, two, three.
00:14 He's gonna come get us in pain.
00:28 You're killing me.
00:30 Good boy.
00:32 Good boy.
00:34 Don't do anything crazy.
00:36 Good boy.
00:38 You're doing really odd.
00:40 Please, my bud.
00:44 Okay.
00:46 Your hands are...
00:48 Please.
00:50 Please.
00:52 You got him?
00:54 Yeah!
00:56 Because
00:58 Olaf has been outside his whole life.
01:00 Olaf doesn't want to come inside.
01:02 We're not quite ready
01:04 to come in the house.
01:06 But you're doing really well, huh, Olaf?
01:08 The first few days,
01:10 he would go to the furthest point in the yard
01:12 and watch me.
01:14 He wouldn't let me get
01:16 10, 15 feet of him.
01:18 Hey, buddy.
01:20 I would take treats out there.
01:22 He's watching. Go back to your chewing.
01:24 He slowly
01:26 started laying on the porch.
01:28 What do you think, Mr. Olaf?
01:30 I would leave all the doors
01:32 open.
01:34 He
01:36 would peek his head in.
01:38 If I was making
01:44 them food, I would hear his little
01:46 tap-tap behind me.
01:48 And that would be him, like,
01:50 two paws in the door.
01:52 You're not going for treats?
01:54 Yeah, I know. We don't like that.
01:56 Although he had a lot of fear of me,
02:02 he had a lot of interest in my
02:04 dogs.
02:06 Olaf was just like,
02:10 "Oh, my gosh.
02:12 What is that thing?
02:14 I need to see her. I need to smell her."
02:20 We were like, "Okay.
02:22 Let's do this."
02:24 They just started playing.
02:28 Olaf started poodling and
02:32 signaling her, like, "Come play!"
02:34 And then she would go run out
02:36 and get him.
02:38 And then she would run back and
02:40 she'd be like, "Why are you coming in the house?"
02:42 What are you doing?
02:44 What are you doing? You silly.
02:48 The first time he came more than
02:50 just two paws in.
02:52 Can you get it, Olaf?
02:54 No.
02:56 On 4th of July,
02:58 the fireworks started going off
03:00 and Olaf was
03:02 barking.
03:04 And I see this white head, like, peek out
03:06 from the kitchen.
03:08 What do you think, Mr. Man?
03:12 It's your first time in the house?
03:16 It was a huge moment.
03:18 He was afraid and he trusted me.
03:20 It's okay.
03:22 So I'm working.
03:24 And Olaf is hanging out
03:28 in the kitchen with me.
03:30 He's not scared of being inside anymore.
03:36 I finally got him
03:38 to take a treat out of my hands.
03:40 Here, Olaf. There you go, baby.
03:42 Good boy.
03:44 He had to really
03:46 work through a lot of fear
03:48 to be able to do that.
03:50 It seems small,
03:52 but it's huge.
03:54 It was everything.
03:56 Look at who is
03:58 letting me pet him.
04:00 Yeah!
04:02 I'm gonna
04:04 belly rub.
04:06 I feel
04:08 so honored that he
04:10 feels safe enough with me
04:12 to trust again,
04:14 to love again.
04:16 I love you, Olaf.
04:18 Hi!
04:20 I feel grateful for the learning I get
04:22 from watching him overcome
04:24 his past.
