A couple says caring for their dog Dodger prepared them for a baby, then treats the dog like an infant in a kennel before officials arrive to take the baby.
0:01 I mean, I, I had no idea what to expect. 0:04 No, me either. 0:05 Mm-mm. 0:05 I mean, it was literally like, hello, Alex and Ryan, this is your newborn baby calling. 0:09 Are you ready for your whole lives to change? 0:11 No, hang up, hang up. 0:16 Michelle, uh, Aaron, Tammy. 0:20 We went through a few names. 0:22 Yeah, and then we finally, we settled on Sebastian. Uh, it's German. 0:26 For handsome. 0:27 For handsome. So, it's handsome. But we were fortunate, you know, because I think we were more prepared than most couples our age. 0:34 And we owe it all to Dodger. 0:35 Yeah, we do. Come here, Dodger. 0:39 Having a dog totally prepared us for having a baby. 0:43 It was just like having a baby before we had our baby. 0:46 You get used to the demands of taking care of another living creature. 0:50 Yeah, it's not about you anymore. 0:51 So by the time you've got a baby, 0:53 Oh! 0:53 you know exactly what to do. 0:55 Absolutely. 0:56 There's no pooping on the floor. Smell it. Smell it. 0:59 You can't just go wherever you want, whenever you want, you know? 1:03 Not without putting the, the baby up somewhere. 1:05 Hello! 1:06 Come on, I want to thank you. 1:09 Thank you. 1:09 Where's the baby? 1:10 Where's the baby? 1:12 We'll be gone for 14 days? 1:13 14 days. 1:14 That's right. 1:14 Thank you so. 1:15 Feed him twice a day. 1:15 I do not feel comfortable with this. Hold on, you can't just put a baby in a kennel. 1:20 Daily life changes, that's for sure. 1:24 Hey, hey, off the furniture. Off the furniture! 1:32 How are you? 1:33 Yeah, to see you. 1:34 Of course, anytime, you know. 1:36 Yeah. 1:38 He probably smells your baby. 1:41 And I, you know, I- I'll tell you this right now, it is so hard to not play with our baby 24/7. 1:48 Hey! Hey, man. 1:51 Yeah, what's up? 1:52 Oh, you want to play catch with somebody? Why don't you play catch with me, big tough idiot? 1:55 Hey, watch it, lady. 1:56 Our lives will never be the same. 1:58 Say good- say goodbye to the camera crew. 2:00 Bye, camera. 2:01 Say bye-bye. 2:02 Thank you. Bye-bye. 2:03 Oh, hello. 2:04 Yeah. 2:05 Folks, we're here from county. We're going to need you to relinquish the baby into our custody. 2:08 My partner here is going to fill out some paperwork and ask some questions. 2:11 Sir, I need you to place that baby into my arms. 2:12 I'm not giving you my child until I see some sort of official documentation. 2:16 We have an official document. 2:17 Is that an official, is that signed by a judge, sir? That I know that I need to... 2:24 No one needs to die here. I need no one needs to die. 2:30 Get him! Go! Go! Get him! 2:33 That is nuts! Damn is fucking gone! You motherfuckers in hell!
