The Story About The Day Chris Evans Adopted His Dog Will Make You Cry

I really wish we could be better at life than other animals, but I have to be honest, they seem to have it all figured out.
Especially dogs. Now some might criticize puppers for being so easily loving and affectionate, but I have to say that's probably all out of jealousy. Who wouldn't want to love the heck out of life where you're constantly wagging your tail and jumping up and down at every opportunity to be excited?
I mean, dogs even enjoy simple drinks of water much more than any human being could.
Which is probably the reason why people who adopt dogs rave about rescue pups so much, because that doggy love, gratitude, and affection is magnified a gajillion percent.
Something that everyone's favorite Avenger, Chris Evans — aka Captain America — put on display when he chronicled the story of how he met his adopted dog, Dodger, for National Pet Day.
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 pic.twitter.com/XjWxPWGDPu

And it's been a love fest ever since.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! From me and this desperate social climber. pic.twitter.com/ZnT2TQDR0c

— Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) September 3, 2017Oh yeah and that lion from before? It doesn't belong to Evans, it belongs to Dodger.
That's right, he has his own stuffed animal and he loves to sing along with it.
This is Dodger’s stuffed lion. He loves it. He brings it everywhere. If you press it’s paw, it sings. Today, Dodger decided to join in. pic.twitter.com/CuH53VNVtF

I mean....c’mon, dude. If you keep it up you’re just gonna get tackled. pic.twitter.com/1adKM7DUKr
