Hello, dear animal friends. Today we present the story of Ocean, an adorable 12-year-old pitbull mother who was rescued by Muddy Paws Rescue in New York, and who is the protagonist of the most recent episode of The Dodo's Dodo Dream Date. The platform organized a blind date for the dog with actress Scarlett Johansson.
The program, which seeks to find families for rescued dogs, uses celebrity fame as a tool to raise awareness about animal adoption and the importance of local shelters. So the actress known for films like Match Point, Lost in Translation or Black Widow, who is one of the founders of The Outset, the skin care collection that collaborates with the initiative, agreed to be Ocean's date.
The date began with Johansson carrying a bouquet of red roses for Ocean, a gesture that ended up being received with enthusiasm and, eventually, destruction by the furry friend. The day continued with a spa for Ocean, including a dog-friendly smoothie, a manicure and pedicure, and lots of hugs from the talented actress. Johansson shared her impressions of the date, revealing that they were both nervous at first, but Ocean quickly warmed up, and they were enjoying getting to know each other.
"At first we were both a little shy and a little nervous about meeting each other, and then I must say that she warmed up almost immediately and we are just now getting to know each other," the actress noted. "I don't think you'll have any problem finding a forever home because you're exceptionally adorable, very cuddly, and that's what we're all looking for," she told Ocean.
By pairing celebrities and influencers with shelter dogs on blind dates, the show aims to create happy moments that inspire people to consider adoption and help animals in need find loving homes.
And after a few days Ocean found a new family: the couple formed by Cristian and Olivia. Now this pitbull will enjoy the constant affection of her human companions in a loving home.
