00:00My son has wanted a dog since I can remember.

00:10You could tell that Tyler had an instant connection with the dog.

00:13Me and Cheyenne have decided we want to get a dog.

00:18Do you want a dog?

00:19Yes.

00:20We're not getting one right now.

00:21I don't care if we go in and we find the perfect dog.

00:22We are not getting a dog today.

00:23There's actually two reasons why we can't.

00:24One, because it's a $1,000 investment, and two, the other big thing is, it's one we're

00:31gonna miss.

00:32What are you thinking?

00:33Do you like her?

00:34Do you?

00:35Yeah.

00:36Hey.

00:37She's sitting even without me talking.

00:38She does like you.

00:39Oh my god.

00:40Look at that.

00:41She's sitting.

00:42She's sitting.

00:43She's sitting.

00:44She's sitting.

00:45She's sitting.

00:46She's sitting.

00:47She's sitting.

00:48She's sitting.

00:49She's sitting.

00:50She's sitting.

00:51She's sitting.

00:52She's sitting.

00:53She's sitting.

00:54She's sitting.

00:55She's sitting.

00:56Get your dog.

00:57I think the moment that we all knew we were getting a dog is when we took her on the walk.

01:03We made a deal when we came here, we weren't gonna get a dog, so I think we're gonna go

01:08home, okay?

01:09But I think we're gonna bring one with us.

01:12What do you think?

01:13I just don't feel right leaving her behind and I think it may not be the perfect time.

01:23Yeah!

01:25We got a dog!

01:27Yeah!

01:29As I'm driving, the dog's got her head right on my shoulder.

01:31Perfect.

01:33It was just weird how much

01:35she felt like we've had her forever.

01:37Her first steps inside the house.

01:41We have a dog now.

01:43The cat is very, very spoiled.

01:45We've had her since pretty much me and Cheyenne have been together.

01:47I didn't know how the cat was going to react

01:49because she's never lived with another animal.

01:51This is our dog.

01:53Hey, meow. She's coming.

01:55That is Miss Baby Kitty.

01:57They're both so curious about each other.

01:59She's older than you.

02:01She's wiser than you. You respect her.

02:03Anything's gonna take time.

02:09Well, I don't know about this.

02:11You can just gradually see them getting closer and closer.

02:15Miss Kitty, can you move so we can go through?

02:17Come on. Walk away.

02:19The dog wants to go through.

02:21Miss Kitty. There we go.

02:23Good kitty.

02:25They're constantly just looking

02:27at each other through the gate.

02:29It's not kitty food.

02:31Kitty food is downstairs.

02:33It's still a work in progress.

02:37She was actually returned twice.

02:39The other dogs in the prior houses

02:41weren't getting along with Stella.

02:43It just didn't feel

02:45like a Stella problem.

02:47Tyler lives with his mom during the week

02:49and comes for the weekends.

02:51When he gets here, Stella goes absolutely nuts.

02:53Yeah. You missed me.

02:55You missed me.

02:57She missed you.

02:59Come on, Stella. Let's go inside.

03:01Stella was perfect for us.

03:03Stella's been a huge addition

03:05to our family.
