| 0:02.6 | Guaranteed Human. My nephew's only friend is Dave the dog, but I'm going to take that away. Am I the A-hole? Why you got to take away David a dog? What did David a dog? Put him down. Put him down. He's not going to doggy heaven either. There's no doggy heaven, only darkness. Oh, no, not Dave the dog. |
| 0:21.8 | Dave the dog going straight to doggy oblivion. I love how instead of calling it the dog Dave, it's a day of the dog. That's pretty great. Yeah, great. Yeah. Great name. Okay. So I found a dog, Dave, that had been abandoned at a dog park. I waited with him until it was dark and then took him home with the |
| 0:37.5 | intention of trying to find the owner or a rescue that would take him. He had no caller. And when I |
| 0:43.2 | took him to my vet, the next day, we couldn't find a microchip. And Bill Gates had it again. |
| 0:50.0 | Rats. You know about the Bill Gates thing, right? Well, he like put microchips in everyone, right? |
| 0:54.8 | Yes. Legit. Yeah. He was clearly someone's pet at some point. He's neutered, house broken, |
| 1:00.9 | and very friendly. Re-holming him never really panned out. No owner ever turned up despite |

| 1:12.5 | My husband was annoyed at first, but it's been almost two years now. My other dog has bonded |
| 1:17.3 | with him. I've fallen in love with him and even my husband has grudgeonly accepted him. |
| 1:22.5 | As far as I'm concerned, Dave's part of the family. Aw, Dave. This is kind of cute. This is a cute |
| 1:27.1 | start of the story. It is cute. My brother- of cute. This is a cute start to the story. It is cute. |
| 1:28.3 | My brother-in-law and his family relocated to our city and moved in with us while they were closing on a house. |
| 1:35.2 | My eight-year-old nephew has autism and it's caused him some struggles. His parents had talked about trying to find him a pet, but I guess they never found a good fit, at least until they met Dave. |
| 1:45.6 | Oh. |
| 1:47.0 | He really bonded with Dave to the point where he sneaks out of bed at night to sleep |
| 1:51.1 | in Dave's dog bed with him. |
| 1:53.5 | Oh, come on. |
| 1:55.3 | That is too cute. |
