Back in February, Rocky’s unique approach to dog adoption caught the world’s attention.

He filmed an endearing episode where he took a shelter dog to a store and promised to buy everything the dog touched.

The video was a hit, quickly going viral and leading to the lucky dog’s adoption.

Encouraged by this success, Rocky was inspired to create a sequel.

This time, Rocky chose Freddie Mercury, a small dog with special needs, for his shopping spree adventure.

Freddie’s story is nothing short of miraculous.

She was found in a trash pile, suffering from multiple broken bones and severe malnutrition.

Adding to her struggles, she had two sets of teeth, making eating a challenge.

Thankfully, she was rescued and underwent surgery, eventually finding a loving home with her foster mom, Angela, who decided to adopt her.

Touched by Freddie’s resilience, Rocky planned a special shopping spree to celebrate her new life with Angela.

“When I see a dog like Freddie and how hard she fought to survive, I feel like she should be taken out for the best day ever,” Rocky expressed.

The first item on the list? A doggy bed.

Freddie, with her keen instincts, quickly chose a cozy bed that seemed to mirror her petite size.

But Freddie wasn’t the only lucky pup that day.

Rocky also brought along Bosco, a shelter dog, to join in the fun.

Since Freddie had difficulty walking, Bosco took the lead in most of the shopping decisions.

He picked out items that both he and Freddie could enjoy, including a massive toy that dwarfed little Freddie!

This heartwarming duo shows that any dog, regardless of size can form bonds.

After their shopping adventure, both dogs were understandably hungry.

Rocky treated them to puppuccinos, a delightful treat that Freddie especially loved.

To cap off their memorable day, Rocky took them to the park, where they relished the freedom and fresh air, embodying the spirit of Rocky’s mission to give them the best day ever.
