What up, brother? What's up, G? Good to see you, man. Good to see you, brother. Before every single game, getting a haircut, that's a must. Look good, feel good, right? Let's do it, man. Let's get it. Maybe if I didn't get a haircut, I might be like, oh, shoot. Like, my fade doesn't look good. Like, I don't know. It's never really happened. I always get that weekly haircut. Remember this guy? Oh, hi, Milo. How's football been? You guys lost the last game, yeah? Yeah. We got whooped. We're just coming off a loss to Saskatchewan. Tough loss for us. We were right there. It was close. But we got them again this weekend. Oh, sick. These are two big back-to-back games. Labor Day Classic. Then they have to come to Winnipeg and play in the Banjo Bowl. So it's a massive rivalry. And the Banjo Bowl is arguably one of the best games of the season. This is my favorite game of the year besides Grey Cup. We're excited, man. Look good, feel good, play good. That's the thing. Alex is some crazy for getting my haircut so often. Maybe she wouldn't be attracted to you if you didn't have fresh cut. Imagine if I got a cut once a month. She's like, who's this bum? Yeah, like, come on now. Easy on the turns, bro. Babe. What? Sorry, bro. Don't drive like an idiot. I wasn't. Yeah, you were. No. Yes, you were. You got your seatbelt on back there? There we go. All good. Today, we've got some dogs that are being Do you want to put that in the side? We're teaming up with Barb from Manitoba Animal Alliance and Carla from Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter. She's in. Someone has to come inside and pick them up. Do you want to come with us, Crystal? Yep. We're also meeting Crystal, who is a community member. And she's the one that lets us know when there are dogs that need to get rescued. She's been here for all her life. And they can't take care of her no more? The way her health is not good. OK. A surrender is when the owner no longer is able to take care of the animal, so they surrender it to the rescue. There's a lot of reasons that someone could end up having to surrender their pet. Sometimes it's due to declining health. It can be due to financial issues, health issues that arise with the dog that they can't afford. There's a lot of factors that come into play. OK, baby. You're OK. Get me a crate. Yep. Coming, coming, coming. I think it's extremely difficult for the owner because you've created that bond with that dog. And as a rescuer, trying to imagine if you ever had to surrender your dog, how hard that would be. It's so sad to think about. It's really hard. It's crushing. Yeah, it's really hard to see, especially when a dog has been loved and cared for like that. And it was no fault of the dog and no fault of the owner. It was just the circumstances that they were in. OK, sweetie. It's OK, sweetie. Watch your paw. Good girl. It's OK, baby girl. Good girl. It's OK, baby. It's upside down, but it's OK. Good girl. Do you want me to go backwards? Oh, anal glands. Yeah, she pissed an anal gland on me. Why does it always happen to you? Anal glands. Oh, my gosh. So dogs release their anal glands when they're scared or stressed out. It smells like a fish factory, but like one that's been out in the sun for a really long time. With a mixture of like rotten eggs as well. And it lingers. Like it lingers. Ugh. It stinks, man. Can we have a change of pants? Oh, wow. Is it my lucky day? Who wears short shorts? I do. Better? A little short for rescuing, but you know. That's all right. How come you never get pissed on? Anal glanding always happens to Alex because she's too eager in the moment to really like smother her love all onto this scared dog. And to like, let me love you. Let me help you. It's OK. Don't be scared. And then they're like, what? The dog's like, lady. I'm so scared. I don't want you to hold me right now and then just unleash it on you. Ugh. I don't really smell it anymore. Ugh. That's because it's not on you. So our next call is from an owner who unfortunately has fallen on some financial hardships. So we're going to go and help her out. Shit, there's lots of dogs here. Holy ----. Look at their ribs. Where is the food, babe? They're all so skinny. It's OK, baby. Oh, you're starving, hey? I know. You're hungry, hey? They're very sweet. I know they are, yeah. You can tell. They're very sweet. Yeah, they've been loved. Obviously, there's a reason that she can't take care of her dogs. It was very clear that the owner's intention was pure and that she did love these animals. She just wasn't able to afford them. Bit of a tough go for you, hey? We'll find good homes for them. Well, I'm going to grab the crate. It's emotional and it's sad. But at the same time, she now knows that she can spend her money on taking care of herself and that her dogs are going to be well cared for. Perfect. Nice and easy. I think owners sometimes take longer to reach out to rescues because they're fearful for the negative comments that they might receive. But that's not out of her not having love for these animals. Hey, baby. That's more of a fear of feeling like she, you know, wasn't able to do what she wanted to do for them. It's okay. You're okay. So you have to have compassion. You don't know what someone's going through. We want to be able to make people feel comfortable enough to come forward and say, hey, I need help. You're okay. Hi, baby. How's that one doing? Hi, baby. He's okay. So it's been a long day, but we're back at the rescue shelter to drop off the surrendered dogs. You're looking a little scruffy. I am. This is long for me right now. I was joking. You literally got your hair cut two days ago. No, look at the beard right now. Not even a fresh line. I like it. No. It's sexy, like a man. I need a cut. I need a shower. This is Vancouver. You're going to like it here. Let's go find the other two puppies, yeah? Brady is preparing for playing in the game this weekend. So he's not here, but I'm in Vancouver to go visit my mom and sister, and I have brought some puppies with me so that they can get adopted. Where's the oversized baggage? The majority of our adoptions happen in Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, so we're always looking for people that are flying from Winnipeg to any of those places. Hello. Hi. This must be Axel. This is Axel. Hi, puppy. Hi, little sweetie. You want to hold him? Yeah. We're your new home. Yeah. Hi, Axel. The other two should be coming out of here. An amazing foster who's taking all three of them. Here they are. Even though she has three of her own dogs, so I love her, my people. Hello. Our house has been so quiet. We haven't had anyone for about eight days now. Eight days. I know. And thanks for fostering. No problem. Yeah, we can't do it without you guys. Bye, Axel. Be a good boy, yeah? Bye, you two. The dogs have arrived safe and sound. The foster has picked them up, and we are all good to go. Quite the line. This morning I'm out in the community to sign some autographs and meet a bunch of Bomber fans. Are you going to the game? Better believe it. Enjoy it. We're going to get our payback on them. How would I rank Winnipeg Blue Bomber fans in the CFL? Is that even a question? They're number one. Like, they're number one, and then I don't even know who number two is because that's how good the Winnipeg Blue Bomber fans are. Yeah, cheer loud. We need it. It's a big, big game for us. If there's any game that we have to win for our fans, you want to win the Vangeable. Lots of dogs on here from all over, like Mexico dogs, Bali dogs, Manitoba dogs. Yeah, kind of everything. You know, for something I worked my whole life for, being a professional athlete, you'd think, like, I would want to be known as a football player. No, no, no. I want to be known as that dog rescue dude. For every yard you make brushing and receiving, I'm donating a dollar to K9. And I'm going to do $10 for every touchdown. Actually? Yes. I got to get lots of touchdowns then. Yes. Hi, Priscilla. Hey, baby. You're a little superstar over here. Yeah, you are. Today I am at the dog beach in Vancouver, and I'm about to meet up with some of the dogs that Brady and I have rescued that have been adopted. Lookit. These are the little culvert pups. Those were the dogs that I rescued from the culvert almost two years ago. Oh, my gosh, they're tiny. Oh, their eyes aren't even open, honey. Oh, my God, there's a ton. When I pulled them out of the culvert, they were, like, days old still, like, eyes closed, just so it was really cool to see them. Hi, Hank. They're big, beautiful, happy dogs. This is, like, my dream. Yeah, it's great. They're grown up and happy. It makes it all worth it. So, Mija is coming. She's the one we rescued in Mexico. She was, like, skin and bones. Hi, baby. I just remember, like, dropping to my knees and bawling because I had never seen a dog that was still, like, alive that skinny. Hi, baby girl. Hi. Oh, Brady's going to be so jealous. He has you tattooed on his arm. Wow, really? Yeah, her face. Wow, that's cool. Yeah, because she was, like, the first rescue we did together. I remember, like, one of the first ever conversations that we had was she wanted to rescue dogs and live on the beach. She said, oh, my God, that sounds amazing. I'm like, yeah, do you want to go do it? Mija. Hi, dog. Is this your first day at the beach? Oh, you want to run? So that was, like, the first, like, rescue moment that we had together. So she'll forever be very special to us. Gorgeous little thing. Oy vey. Thanks for inviting us. Thank you so much for bringing her. So nice to see you. Yeah, nice seeing you, too. Dusty bum. Always a pleasure. I missed you. Oh, you're so gorgeous. I love you. Ty Ty, Mom's here. My mom, Heather, and my sister, Sarah, showed up with her son, Hendrix. You going to say hi to Ty? Yeah, where's my dog? He's down there. My mom is one of the kindest humans, like, I've ever known. Oh, Millie. Who's a Millie? She's always had a huge heart for animals. Ever since we were little, she was always rescuing dogs, volunteering at the Humane Society. Hi, baby. Oh, I miss you. I haven't seen you forever. Everything that I've learned about loving and being compassionate towards animals definitely comes from her. Tiger. Hi. My sister and I are very close. You know, we're 10 years age difference, but my sister was, like, my best friend. OK, go have fun, but listen when I call you. My sister and I started an organization together called Care Rescue. We had that for almost 10 years. I'm the dreamer, and she's the doer, so without her, I would have never been able to do that because she was always the one with the plan. My mom and sister definitely have shaped me into the person that I am today, especially when it comes to my love for animals and to never stop fighting for them. Oh! Jeez Louise, bro. You're going to knock out your mama. Definitely not freezing my eggs after this. Today is... It is the rivalry game between Sask and the Bombers. It's the loudest game of the year. It's the craziest game of the year. It's, like, people have actual banjos. Like, Bomber fans and Rider fans don't like each other. You know, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, we don't really get along. You know, this game, there is a trophy handed out at the end of the game. You want to keep that banjo bowl trophy. It's bragging rights, not just for us, but for our fans. It's a massive rivalry, which is, I think, what makes sports so much fun. With me, Brady's mom and sister, Callie and Cheyney. And then my mom is a football fan and flew with me to Winnipeg for Brady's game. You've got to keep the ball on the ground. Keep the ball on the ground! I thought my mom became a football fan because of Brady, but turns out she liked football long before that. Catch it! She even dated a couple Bombers way back in her day, so that was news to me. I guess it runs in the family. The Bombers lead the Riders by 7. Let's go! No! Saskatchewan Rope Riders. Brutal for us to lose at home, banjo bowl. It's not good. When you have a fan base like the fan base we got going on, they show up week in and week out, through the highs and the lows, and all you want to do is give them victories. No, they deserve it. I didn't get one. What about me? Good effort. How are you feeling? We're in like a hole now, man. Yeah. We're 6-5 with 7 games left. Don't panic, but there is only 7 opportunities left. And if you lose a few of those, then you may have to start to panic a little bit. I love Brady. I know. I love him like a son. He's a good guy. They need a couple of wins under their belt. You want to come see Will? We're going to go visit Will and Kate. They were the skinny dogs. I know. You're hungry, hey? Will, you're huge! Hi, William! He's just doing so well. Hi, beautiful, handsome boy. I know. Doesn't he look good? What a transformation. Like incredible. I'm so excited. He got adopted. He's going home tomorrow. Oh, wow. When we get a dog adopted, that feeling is one of the most incredible feelings in the world. Come and see where Kate is. She's really sweet. Hi, gorgeous. You're just a big, healthy girl now. She is a very sweet dog. Can we take them for a walk? That would be amazing. I can't believe how good they look. Chef's kiss, they look incredible. They look amazing. And when you see that transformation, it's like, it makes it all worth it, you know? He's way more chill than she is. Here, run some drills. With her? Yeah. Oh! Run! There's been so many amazing moments like that throughout this journey of dog rescue. Lots of dogs that we're able to save. Come on! That's what makes it worth it, and that's what keeps us going. Oh, shoot, now he wants to run. Yo, Will, there's only one athlete in the family, and it ain't me, buddy. Like, I've had my moments where I'm, like, in my clothes in the bathtub with a bottle of red wine, and I'm like, I quit, I am done with rescue, this is, like, way too hard. It's a lot of work. If we burn out, like, we're no good to the dog, so we still have to take time for ourselves. Hi, Jasmine. We are at the Canine Advocacy Bowling Fundraiser tonight. Supporting a good cause with canine advocacy and have a great time, have some fun with our fellow rescuers. Show us your bowling skills. I'm not losing. All of the main volunteers are here, their families. Rescue work is very intense, and it's very, like, full-on, and it can be very emotional. So it's nice to have fun, and everyone can just kind of let loose and have a good time and not think about all the, like, craziness that goes into rescuing. Oh, yeah, okay, okay! That's your first throw? Yeah, buddy. That's what happens when you become a dad. You just automatically become good at bowling. I love bowling. Oh! All those balls before, Brady. No, no, no, like, you were, like, competitive. No, I was not. You would spin on your balls. I'm extremely competitive. I say I'm not competitive, but then, like, something comes out of me, and I get a little competitive. You got it in you. I get a little feisty. You got it in you. Yeah. Oh, yes, oh, yes! Strike, strike! Strike style, Brady. Damn, that was nice. Granny style. Right down the center. Strike. Is it strike or strike? Yeah, strike. Yeah, that's your game. Granny. Strike. You're too tight in the back. I just couldn't do it. Loosen up, loosen up the hips, babe. Just hit him with the hips. Next time on Must Love Dogs. Looks like three or four more under here. Winter is right around the corner. Great, great. This is the time where we want to bring in as many dogs as we can. Still have one more. Another one? I'm ready to go and fire it up. We all want to win a Grey Cup, and I want it so badly. I'm trying to win.
