Wait till you see her get chunky and wear a graduation hat. We talked to The Animal Pad about how so many people stepped in to save Tory's life, and how she loves to flop into her mom's lap!
Transcript
00:00She was so hungry that she was just following the bread around.
00:05A group of kids on a mission trip were feeding her.
00:21So they brought her over to the United States.
00:24And they ended up finding the animal pad.
00:26And since we found her, she's eight and a half pounds.
00:28It's crazy. I cannot believe that.
00:33Tori has a cancerous disease.
00:36First video that I saw was a video about her going through chemo.
00:39As a cancer survivor myself, and having gone through pretty grueling chemo,
00:45I thought, OK, that's my dog.
00:47Tori, did you hear? Oh, my goodness.
00:53Hi, did you graduate?
00:57And I instantly was just like, now she's medically cleared.
01:00I'm bringing her home.
01:02I'm a graduate.
01:11That day she came in, I sat down on the ground,
01:14and she comes over and just flops down and puts her head in my lap and looks up at me.
01:19And I was like, oh, my God, you're home.
01:23She's slowly starting to learn how to be a dog.
01:26Oh, my God, that's so cute.
01:27She's learning how to play with toys.
01:34You're done? A little overwhelming?
01:39I'm an ER nurse, and so I see a lot of cancer patients.
01:42And sometimes it wears on me.
01:44But OK, come home.
01:46And I see this Goofy, just as happy as could be a cancer survivor.
01:51I'm grateful that I was even chosen to adopt her.
