This pup just needs special meals — like a sweet potato volcano with chicken dinosaurs! — and so does his new sister ❤️ We're celebrating AAPI Heritage Month by spotlighting some of our favorite AAPI pet parents, their pets and rescue work.

00:00We just did a sweet potato volcano with little chicken dinosaurs.
00:18They're eating better than I do.
00:27When I first brought him home, Cedric had just been on antibiotics because there was
00:31a little bug going around his litter.
00:34At eight weeks old, being on antibiotics was not great for his gut.
00:39He wasn't holding down Kimball.
00:41Want to try some yogurt?
00:46Do you like the yogurt?
00:51I started making him gentle, some cooked stew daily.
00:59He seemed so much happier and healthier.
01:02I decided it was the best way forward for us.
01:11Cedric is super energetic.
01:15I thought it'd probably be best for him to have a buddy to hang out with, so we decided
01:20to get another dog.
01:28They've really developed a deep bond, and you can see how much they do love each other.
01:35They acted a little bit like husband and wife.
01:42At first, he wasn't really eating much, and I was like, oh, she's picky.
01:48It was like, oh, no, because she had worms.
02:01It just took a while for her to kind of feel better, get rid of the worms, de-stress a
02:06little maybe, and now she's a huge eater.
02:11I'm super excited for these.
02:17I wasn't going to exclude her from what Cedric was experiencing, so I was like, I'll include
02:22her as soon as possible.
02:24I think the first meal that I made for both of them was a sweet potato pie, and she was
02:31just so excited.
02:33They're so in tune.
02:35They know certain things I'm pulling out that I'm going to be cooking their food, and they
02:40just, they get super excited.
02:46It's just such a fun part of our routine for them and for me, too.
02:51It makes me really happy cooking for them, watching them eat and enjoy the food, watching
02:56them hang out together.
02:58It's just, it's been really, really good.
