Man’s best friend! There is no stronger bond than that of a human and their pup — and Chris EvansThis dynamic is best illustrated by Dodger and his dog.
The Avengers star, 38, first met his sweet mixed-breed boxer around the time he was filming his 2017’s Gifted. He shared a video of their initial introduction to Twitter in April 2018, in which Evans — who was off-camera — approached the pen where the rescue pup was being held.
The Knives Out actor says, “Hi dude,” to Dodger as he bends down to put his hand out for the pup, in an effort to become better acquainted. Evans is shown affection by Evans’ dog by repeatedly licking and pawing at it.
Evans has posted several adorable tweets featuring the Dodger since adopting him. He’s paid tribute to the pet by posting an adorable snap of the duo on International Dog Day in August 2019, and he’s also shared a few videos of Dodger showing off his singing skills. The video even features the dog! Nanny Diaries star’s Twitter header photo.
Evans isn’t the only one to fall in love with Dodger, as fans have also carved out a place for the pup in their hearts. The internet’s interest in the dog nearly caused many to lose it when Evans shared a picture that some thought indicated the pet had passed on.
“Really missing this guy right now,” he captioned a Twitter pic of the duo in 2017, where the actor was shown softly smiling as he cuddled up with Dodger. His post attracted concern responses from fans. Fantastic FourStar clarified his initial statements.
“To be clear, he’s alive and well,” Evans wrote. “Just thousands of miles away for the next couple months.”
Seth Rogen was among those who freaked out over Evans’ earlier remark, tweeting at the Marvel star: “F–k dude. I was, like, crying.”
