00:00Hi, Amanda.
00:01Hey, Dodo.
00:02Are you ready to meet your dream date?
00:04I'm ready.
00:06Is she here?
00:07Yeah, she's at the door.
00:09Oh, uh, okay.
00:11A few things I have to do real quick.
00:13Just, I gotta get the tea.
00:15I have a really fun project with paint and peanut butter.
00:19We're gonna learn a lot about each other with it.
00:21All right, let's meet her.
00:24Hi.
00:28Hello.
00:30Hello, Ethel.
00:32Would you like to come in?
00:34Come on inside.
00:35Hey, I heard you've been single for a while now.
00:38Since October?
00:39When you're 10, I hear you like walking in the flowers.
00:42You know what's really nice?
00:43The flowers are blooming again.
00:45Win.
00:46Do you want to come into my house?
00:48I'll make a cute house.
00:49It's for kids, but it's kind of also for dogs.
00:52I'll make a cute little more.
00:54Hello.
00:55Hey, Ethel.
00:56How long you been single?
00:58Hello.
00:59Ethel.
01:00Got you something.
01:01Hi.
01:02Hi.
01:03You want some of this?
01:05We need to do some bonding.
01:06I have an activity for that.
01:08It's painting.
01:09I think I'm gonna set up the painting activity.
01:12She's gonna really like that.
01:14This is fun because we don't really know what it's gonna look like.
01:17I'm just really into the green.
01:22I really like the green.
01:23And I think you are too.
01:25Okay, you ready?
01:27I'm gonna put this straight in the bag without touching the top.
01:32And then you know what's coming next.
01:34You know what's coming next.
01:36Not a lot, just enough.
01:38Okay, I'm gonna start my painting.
01:48How's it coming along?
01:51Yeah, pretty good.
01:54In this painting, you are gonna be a blue dog.
01:58I know you're done with yours already.
01:59It's gonna take me a little longer.
02:01Can you just turn around real quick?
02:03Oh, good.
02:05I'm actually feeling surprisingly confident.
02:07I think she's gonna recognize herself.
02:13Wow.
02:14I'm proud of us.
02:15You did a really good job.
02:17We gotta let these dry.
02:19But I think now's a really good time to go for a walk.
02:22What do you think?
02:23Go outside?
02:24I think the day's going really well right now.
02:26Meeting Ethel was amazing.
02:30She's just a bundle of energy.
02:32We did the painting activity, which I think went great.
02:35I think she's really warming up pretty fast.
02:37I do acknowledge that the painting might have been not the greatest idea because it takes so long to dry.
02:43Which is why I think it's the perfect time to go on a walk outside.
02:47We're gonna walk down to the river.
02:49It's gonna be beautiful.
02:51Right.
02:52Here we go.
02:53Oh, she's excited.
02:54I get excited when I go outside too.
02:57And I think spring's my favorite season.
02:59It's mainly because of the flowers.
03:01Wow.
03:02Look.
03:03What do you see?
03:04What do you see?
03:05Look at all these flowers.
03:06How you just wanna enjoy yourself outside.
03:10Come on, boo-boo.
03:11Whoop!
03:12Whoop!
03:13I can barely catch up with you.
03:16Where do you get all that energy?
03:18Look at the flowers.
03:19Whoa.
03:20Let's go back and have a break.
03:22Let's go back.
03:23I got some tea for you.
03:25That's very nice.
03:27Oh, and the roses.
03:29But I can hold them for you.
03:31We're back.
03:34Alright, I'm gonna take my shoes off.
03:36And I'm gonna make you some tea.
03:38What do you think?
03:39Okay, so we just got back.
03:41The walk went great.
03:43She was really more energetic than I thought she would be.
03:46And I think that maybe she just was done and wanted to come back and get cozy, which is exactly the way I am.
03:53A little tea for myself.
03:57And then it is time to relax.
04:00So here we have some scones and some cupcakes for you.
04:05I thought maybe you would like them.
04:07Now, I wasn't sure which color you wanted.
04:10So I have four different ones.
04:11You want green, beige, maroon.
04:16Oh, okay.
04:17Cheers.
04:21You want the cupcake first?
04:23The orange one?
04:24The green one?
04:25Or the brown one?
04:26These green cupcakes are specifically made for dogs.
04:29Now, I don't think you should eat it all in one go.
04:31That's just me.
04:32But you know what?
04:33You do you.
04:34Oh, very nice.
04:36You like it.
04:37She likes it.
04:39So, mmm, that's good.
04:43My day job, I'm an actor.
04:45Since I can remember, I've been working with different rescues, trying to find ways to keep dogs and cats off the street.
04:53These weeds are so good.
04:54I can't stop eating them.
04:55You know, the first thing I noticed about you was your ear and your tail.
05:00And I want to paint her again.
05:02But I also have a business with my girlfriend.
05:04It's called Make It Cute.
05:05And that's the playhouse.
05:06That's sitting right there.
05:07And one day, very, very soon, we'll make a playhouse for you.
05:10And it's all sustainable and very durable cardboard.
05:13Which is why I set it up for you.
05:15And I think we can go in if you want.
05:16So this is the Make It Cute house.
05:18You know what else I have in here?
05:19My kids and I love to play in this with our puppets.
05:26Oh my god, she's so cute.
05:29Oh, all right.
05:30I think the paintings might be done.
05:32Let's go hang them up.
05:34Oh, it's cute.
05:36It's cute.
05:37She's cute.
05:38It's pretty good.
05:40I'll probably dream about it tonight.
05:43Oh my gosh, it's so good.
05:46It's so good.
05:48Here it is.
05:53With pizza and applesauce.
05:55That means they go together really well.
05:57Come here.
05:58Woof.
05:59That's yours.
06:01That's you.
06:07Very proud.
06:08I have the best day with you.
06:10And whoever gets to keep you is going to have many, many best days.
06:15I think you did a really good job on your painting.
06:17And I think that you and the person who brings you home should keep the paintings forever.
06:25Thanks for hanging out with me.
06:27I think we've had a really good date.
06:29Just one more kissy.
