00:01I called my boyfriend and I go, hi, don't be mad.
00:08I'm Emily and when the dodo reached out about my foster dog, honey,
00:11I knew I had to tell her story.
00:13I got her cornered in this wetland preserve area.
00:17If only this would happen to me.
00:20I had a big fluffy blanket to scoop her up to get her in the car.
00:25Got her in the house.
00:27I'm going to go to the vet to get a scan, see if you have a family.
00:32She had no chip.
00:33What the heck are we going to do?
00:37Not 14 hours ago, we almost got hit by a car, now look at you.
00:42I called local police, I called St. Paul, Minneapolis police, I called shelters, I called rescues.
00:51I'm showing up to houses knocking on doors.
00:53Is this your dog?
00:54I previously fostered, I fostered 30 dogs.
00:58Normally with a foster, I'm like, okay, I at least know something about you.
01:02This, I have no idea and we're just going to try to figure it out.
01:06This is what happens if I stop petting honey.
01:10Thankfully, she was just such a doll and so sweet that it was really easy to figure out.
01:22And then guys, should we go?
01:25Normally on walks with honey, we would turn here, but Jo wanted to show her her favorite
01:29little spot, so we're going to go straight today.
01:35We're going to go to the house together.
01:37We're so super safe with you two on the job.
01:42Are you a sunbathing beauty?
01:45Holy cow, it was time to start thinking about a family for her.
01:53We got 27 applications in the first 12 hours.
01:56And I hope you don't even miss me at all, okay?
01:59We're going to have some siblings and they're going to be closer to your size than Jo Jo.
02:06You are so cute.
02:09I love you, honey.
02:12It's hard for me.
02:14I know that it's best for them.
02:17She has two doggy siblings.
02:20They went on a really nice walk together and she just looks like she's part of the pack.
02:27Honey is the most memorable and the most special of the fosters.
02:41they live in my head.
