Chris Evans Shared A Heartwarming Video Of His Pet Dog, Dodger

Well, another day passes and that means that it is National [INSERT THING] Day today. No, I'm not talking about National Cheese Fondue Day (look it up), of course, today is National Pet Day.

One person who this has not passed by is Hollywood actor Chris Evans. He has been all over social media today remembering the day that he met his furry life partner - and again, I'm not talking about his Chuckle Brothers-style moustache.

He has taken the time today to pay tribute to Dodger, his loveable rescue pup.

In a disgustingly heart-warming tweet he paid tribute to his version of Man's Best Friend and also encouraged others to pick up a pup from the pound instead of buying a brand new one. He's got a point too - there's millions of dogs in rescue centres that are desperate for a new home, and no less cute than their pure-bred counterparts.

The Marvel Universe megastar said: "This is the moment we met. He was trying so hard to stay seated even though he desperately wanted to get out.

"I knew right away that he was coming home with me, so I took this video to always remember our first hello. Rescue dogs are the best dogs!! #NationalPetDay"


It's pretty cute. What's even more cute is that he posted the video of his soon to be dog companion in his rescue centre cage wagging his tail and trying desperately to stay as still as possible - trying to be a good boy.

Well, it didn't matter - it seems as if Chris' mind was made up straight away.

Their relationship has gone from strength to strength since then as well, he's always sharing pictures of him and Dodger out on their adventures. It would be enough to make you de-friend someone on Facebook if it wasn't Captain America.

But it is, and - as you might imagine - his legions of Twitter fans have gone wild for it.


Since he put the tweet out this morning it has been retweeted more than 50,000 times and liked more than 250,000 times, which makes for some pretty good numbers.

It has also been inundated with people posting loving pictures of their furry friends, be they feline, canine, avian, or whatever rats are.


But all of their pets don't matter, the world just likes to swoon over the pets of people who are ridiculously good looking, very rich and famous, and literally a comic book all-American superhero.

Still, it IS cute though. Bless.
