This video of a tiny rescue pup saying goodbye to her foster dad is bittersweet in the best possible way. Eggroll started her journey in a cardboard box on the side of a road. It was a hot day in the sun, but her confidence never dipped even for a second.
Evan Cooper shared her final foster day on @evcoop recently. She is a spunky mixed breed, which explains her fearless attempts at jumping onto big benches. According to his bio, Cooper usually goes on side quests, and this specific one involves getting Eggroll to her permanent family.
Video shows rescue pup’s moments with foster dog before leaving for forever home
The video begins in the car with Eggroll perched on Evan Cooper’s shoulder and trying to lick his ear. Cooper narrates as we learn that just last week, someone left her in the sun with nothing. But her confidence is huge. Vader, the resident German Shepherd, took her under his wing immediately. We see them sniffing each other in the hallway.
Once outdoors, we see Eggroll trying to jump onto a big picnic bench despite her tiny size. She even tries to walk on a wooden divider in the park and tumbles off. It is the kind of rescue pup spirit seen in this video that foster dad Cooper loves.
The itinerary for her final day was simple. They hit the park and snagged a pup cup. Eggroll even found a random piece of fabric in the grass, which she refused to let go of. Cooper had to plead with her to drop it. Then the foster dad is back in the car, and this rescue pup and her foster brother enjoy their treats in the car before the big meeting in the video.
Cooper asks Vader if he is ready to say goodbye to his little sister, and he just looks at him. He then asks the rescue pup if she is ready to go to her forever home as she sits sweetly in the crook of Vader’s body. They finally meet the new family in a parking lot.
The clip has reached over 77,000 likes because it is so sweet and authentic. “You would think these get easier over time, but they don’t,” Cooper says in the caption. However tinged with sadness, this video of the rescue pup leaving her foster dad is truly special.
