Chris Evans says adopting his dog Dodger was the ‘best decision of my life’
Even major Hollywood celebrities have spoken about how their rescue dogs changed their lives.
Recently, one star spoke about how adopting his furry best friend was the “best decision” he’s made.
It all started while Evans was filming the movie Gifted, and he realized the kennel they were filming in wasn’t just a movie set.
“I foolishly walked in and I thought, ‘Are these actor dogs or are these real up for adoption dogs?’” the actor told People in 2017. “And sure enough they were, so I was walking up and down the aisles and saw this one dude and he didn’t belong there. I snagged him and he’s such a good dog.”
In a recent interview with BuzzFeed Celeb, Evans said that he imagined adopting a puppy, and never planned on taking home an older dog like Dodger. But after seeing Dodger, it was love at first sight.
If it wasn’t clear that Evans loves dogs, he also got to play with puppies throughout the whole interview — and couldn’t contain his excitement:
“I mean that’s probably one of the purest relationships I have,” Evans said in an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in October 2020. “[Getting my tattoo of his name] didn’t take much convincing. I’ll never regret that tattoo. I’ve regretted a few in my life, not that one.”
“He acts like a puppy, he’s got the energy of a puppy, he’s just such a sweetheart, he’s such a good boy,” Evans told People. “He loves dogs, he loves kids, he’s full of love.”
We’re so glad Chris Evans found such a perfect pet, and thank him for spread the word about adopting dogs, especially older dogs.
