00:00When this terrified little dog was spotted, he immediately ran away.
00:04Catching him felt impossible.
00:06His life was in danger because the property owner was threatening to shoot him.
00:13Come here. It's okay.
00:16The people who found him reached out to local expert arrest here at Audrey,
00:19who we love working with here at the Dodo.
00:23Audrey knew chasing him would only make him more afraid,
00:25so she set out a humane trap instead.
00:28But then he completely disappeared.
00:33Get this. Three weeks later, Audrey got a message about a stray dog hiding on someone's property.
00:40His life was in danger because the property owner was threatening to shoot him.
00:45So Audrey immediately sprang into action, and when she arrived, she could not believe it.
00:50It was the same dog that went missing three weeks ago.
00:54Luckily, a kind woman had been feeding him at an abandoned house,
00:57which kept him returning to the area.
00:59Come here. You're a good boy.
01:02But he was still so scared and ran away every time Audrey tried to befriend him.
01:07It took a few days of returning to the area and patiently earning his trust.
01:11But finally, he felt safe enough to approach her.
01:16Little by little, he started warming up.
01:22What can happen right here?
01:24Why are you guys in the springs?
01:27Woo!
01:27And before long, he was leaning into Audrey and giving her kisses.
01:31You're a good boy.
01:32What are you doing?
01:34Are you being a good boy?
01:37Audrey decided to name him theater and promised him from then on,
01:40his life will only be filled with safety and love.
01:43Are we in the car?
01:45You did so good.
01:47You did so good.
01:49Watching that trust finally click is everything.
01:52Audrey, thank you for never giving up on him.
