Andrea Barberwants every animal to have afurrytailending.
The actress teamed up with the Helen Woodward Animal Center in Rancho Santa Fe, California for the four-part series, working to place rescue dogs intofur-ever homes with real-life families. Barber takes viewers inside the nonprofit animal center, where “people help animals and animals help people,” to help folks find theirpaw-fect match. (Okay, we’ll stop with the puns now!)
In the first episode, Barber meets Carlos, Angela and Marissa Ramos, who are seeking a companion for their beloved dog Aria, who has been part of their pack for two years. A recent visit to the vet revealed a shocking find: Unbeknownst to the family, Aria had a bullet in her leg.
“I was so moved hearing Aria’s story, and I think I have a pretty good understanding of the kind of dog you’re looking for,” Barber told the couple. “I would love to intro you to three dogs, and I’m hopeful that one of them will be Aria’s perfect companion.”
From there, Barber brought out Taro theLabrador Retriever, Rico theGerman Shepherdmix, Zorro thePointermix as prospective pets – and Aria was enchanted.
Though the Ramos family ultimately only took one dog home (and you’ll have to watch to find out which one!), through itsgrant program, the PEDIGREE Foundation supports the work that the Helen Woodward Animal Center (and other organizations like it) does to rescue and rehome all the dogs in its care.
