- See if he can smell it.
Okay, with his nose he can smell it.
Here you go.
Oh, this little floppy puppy right here his name is Kobe
and today we're gonna let this blind homeless dog
pick his very first homemade meal.
A special thanks to Furbo dog camera
for sponsoring this video.
We're actually gonna do something really cool.
More on that later.
This blind homeless puppy has a heart murmur.
He's gonna need a procedure on,
and possibly a surgery to try to bring his eyesight back.
He's also gonna need a loving home,
but today we're going to show him as much love as we can
because I am lucky enough to be fostering this guy, whohoo!
So we're gonna let him pick the ingredients out
for whatever meal he wants.
No doubt, I love cooking for dogs
and in fact, the last few times I did this
you guys loved it.
One of your favorite videos is when I let Freddy Mercury
and Bosco pick their very first meal.
Bosco is actually Cane Corso, just like Kobe.
Now you guys helped me get Bosco adopted.
The community out there that loves dogs so much,
we're going to be able to help this guy
and then eventually get him adopted.
We're also going to let my dog Flip
and Zoe pick their ingredients as well.
All right, here's how it's going to work.
You gotta eat your greens.
We're gonna start with veggies,
then we're gonna move to the carb,
and last but not least, he's got to have protein.
I don't even know if he knows what steak
and chicken and salmon are,
but he's going to get to pick today.
It'd be really interesting too,
because he can't see,
so he's going to have to use his nose 100%.
We're about to get started,
but first I want to tell you Kobe's story.
Now I know he's big, but he's only 13 weeks old.
Someone bought him from a breeder
and then tried to return him
once they realize all of the medical hardships
that Kobe was going through.
Now when this happened, he was at the vet
and the vet realized very quickly
that this was going to be bad.
You see, likely Kobe would either end up in the wrong hands
or at a shelter or even worse at the end of the line,
and so when Ty with Reverse Rescue found out about this,
he stepped in and said, you know what
we'll do whatever it takes,
we'll fight for this guy no matter the cost.
So now my wife and I, Kelly, we're fostering Kobe
because of just everything going on in the world right now.
Everyone's staying at home
and so it's a great way to foster and if we can help Ty out
and help raise funds
because I know all of you can help with that you're awesome.
Then all of us together could literally save Kobe's life.
Kobe actually has an eye doctor appointment later this week,
so I actually have some hope that we can try to get
some if not all of his eyesight back.
All right, all of the veggies are lined up right there.
Hit that subscribe button and turn on notifications
and let's get going.
Carrots, spinach, blueberries, cauliflower and broccoli.
Don't you tell me the dogs can't have veggies
because they are good for dogs, here we go buddy.
Help you out a little 'cause you can't see.
(tapping)
Okay, he's going to fill up on blueberries.
Oh, here comes spinach, you still out yet? (laughs)
Even like spinach.
Lets see if he likes carrots.
(upbeat music)
(Laughs)
Okay, he wants carrots in there too.
No way, he's gonna eat cauliflower let's see.
This is so awesome because it's like,
everything is new and exciting to him
because he's a puppy and he's just, he's never had this.
I mean Ty obviously is showing him lots of love
at Reverse Rescue, but he never had this with his family.
So like all this is just new and fun and exciting.
Let's see if you likes broccoli this is so fun.
(laughing) He loves it!
Outside of me, I've never seen anyone
so excited about eating their veggies.
Come on bud, mm, that's so good, that's so good.
That's just the veggies.
Wait until we actually get to the steak and the salmon.
I mean, he's going to lose it.
- It's gotta be the carbs first.
- Let's bring the veggies inside before he,
before (laughs) he eats them all.
Okay wait, wait, wait!.
Okay, so part two.
We have rice and we have potatoes.
I tell you what, if everyone hits a like button right now,
we get to 50,000 likes.
We will do another video with Kobe,
but right now let's get to the carbs.
Hit that like button.
Go, Kobe, go!
It's got to have a sound,
not eating the rice he's kind of mealing it around,
- He chewed on the rice a little bit.
- He goes, "I don't know."
- That's uncooked rice so it can't be that good.
What's this, what's this (laughing)
- He's eating the rice. - Okay.(laughing)
- [Woman] He touched both of them.
- What's this? He's got so much rice in his mouth.(laughing)
Look he's like now he's trying to find
little grains of rice in the grass.
What's that? It doesn't squeak.
He touched a potato and the rice,
so I think we should throw both of them in there.
All right, coming up next is the big one.
We're going to lay out a T-bone steak, salmon and chicken.
Are you ready for this my man?
- I'm hungry. - Okay.
- I'm pregnant and I'm hungry.
- [Man] Do you wanna get some take out?
- Yeah, but we can't leave him.
- [Man] What! Are you kidding me?
We can because we have the Furbo Dog Nanny
that can allow us to go get some food.
You want to go eat some?
- What do you think? Yeah, okay.
- [man] Alright, let's go.
Okay, listen to this.
As soon as we leave Kobe's anxiety level starts to increase,
but Furbo can help us reduce that anxiety.
Check this out.
They've got two way audio so we can talk right to Kobe.
Kobe, we miss you buddy here's a treat.
It has the cutest little squeaker
(squeaking)
and then it just tosses out the treats
and that sound is great for Kobe
because he can't see but he can hear
and he can feel the love.
Do you have any pregnancy cravings?
- Everything (laughing)
- [Man] With these, I've got full HD camera,
night vision, four times zoom, even barking,
alert notifications. (dog barking)
The Furbo Dog Nanny can help take care of your pups
and make sure they're safe and happy at home.
Night vision so cool.
- Okay I want something healthy.

- [Woman] All the way back there.
- I guess he is a blind puppy.
- [Woman] Get closer.
- Okay, here we go.
You got chicken, salmon, steak good boy.
- [Woman] Oh, you got your steak, you got it.
(cheers)
- He's a T-bone steak man.
Right he could eat that raw,
but I want to cook it up.
I want the flavor and the aroma.
I want him to be able to smell it cause he can't see.
So that nose is really important to taste.
Let's cook it up.
I can't wait for you guys
to see him eat his very first homemade meal.
- [Man] You want to let Zoe pick her first meal?
- Yeah Zoe is excited about,
said it's about time we did this for her.
- [Man] What do you think she's going to pick?
Salmon, steak or chicken.
- I know she loves all of them so--
- [Man] I think she'll be an opportunist
and just pick the first one she can find.
- Yeah, ready? Go get it Zozo!
- [Man] Come on Zozo.
- Which one?
(Cheering)
- [Man] All you gotta do is touch it Zoe
The chicken, all right!
Yeah, she almost went in for the steak there.
- I knew.
- [Man] Okay what about Flip?``
Flip's like "I'm ready it's go time.
No come on come on.
I know how these videos work.
- Ooh steak! - Ooh steak!
- [Man] Wait, wait, hold on.
Let's see what his second choice is?
- And chicken. - And chicken.
- Okay okay.
- [Man] All right puppy.
All right, so why don't I start grilling these up.
You want to start on the veggies and rice?
- Yeah.
- [Man] All right, let's do this.
- Okay.
- [Man] A lot of people are staying at home.
- Yeah.
- [Man] You are pregnant
so you really have to be careful in the stay at home.
- Yeah.
- [Man] Is this what you thought you'd be doing
with having to stay at home?
- Yeah, what else would I be doing?
- This is the YouTube video that I would want to watch
if I was stuck at home.
And we're fostering Kobe
because since we're going to be home more,
we wanted to foster it
and I hope you guys consider fostering too
just find your local shelter or rescue.
If you're home, why not, right?
- Yeah.
- All right, let's cook it up.
- [Woman] How's it going?
- All is good we're just grilling.
- [Woman] Kobe having fun?
- He loves it man he really likes the smell.
Got my grill and apron on.
- [Woman] Oh man, it's raining out here.
- Yeah, I think Kobe likes the rain.
- [Woman] Especially with that smell, huh?
- I'm not gonna let the rain stop me
from making this guy's first ever homemade meal.
- [Woman] Okay I'll let you stay out here
and I'll go inside and cook the veggies.
- Yeah you go inside, but just let it be said
that I will stop at nothing,
not even a rainstorm to help dogs.
To us Californians, it's a rainstorm.
- [Woman] Yeah
- Check this out. If you ever make salmon for your dog,
leave the skin on here to really do it for them,
and it's good for humans too,
but really healthy for dogs
and I'm not putting any seasoning on them.
They'll love just the flavor from it being lightly cooked.
Just turned out nice, we got some fans. (laughing)
Kobe, I don't see it but I smell it, I eat it.
You guys having trouble?
Nope, no, no, Kobe hasn't learned yet.
- He is 13 weeks so. - Yeah.
- All right, we're just going to leave him.
- [Man] This is our family secrets dog food recipe.
I'll put the link down in the description below
if you want it,
- [Woman] The compund carrots are in there,
I'll chop it up more vegetables
and then we're gonna throw them in.
The rice is in the rice cooker.
- [Man] Okay.
- When there's only a couple of minutes
to go we'll throw in blue berries.
- [Man] All right guys you got 15 minutes, 15 minutes.
I don't think they can wait that long.
- They gonna have to.
- [Man] Chewing up the rug?
You're a good little kitchen helper, you know that.
(upbeat music)
Doing a good job.
- Thanks. (beeping)
- Alright, we're adding the rice buddy,
blueberries and the carrots, broccoli and spinach.
Fine chocolate cauliflower in there.
Ooh it smells good.
All right, let's see what the dog do taste like it.
It's really good if you add a little bit of soy sauce
it will taste like stir fry.
Grab Kobe.
- okay
- [Man] and hold this camera and meet me outside.
I know we're gonna make his meal for him,
but I want to give him this whole steak, it's--
- What? You want the whole steak?
- [Man] He does, he said yes.
- Okay
His eyes said yes.
Look, Flips inside like
"why am I treated like this?"
Well Flip, it's cause a floppy new puppy came here.
Well let's give Flip the whole thing too.
- Maybe he'll like a strip.
- [Man] All right, all right.
It's gonna be fun to see flip and Zoe eat too,
but this is like the moment.
See if he can just smell it.
Yeah okay with his nose he can smell it, here you go
(laughing) Look at his eyes just so big.
(Upbeat music)
All right he got a good portion of it.
You searching for more.
Lets bring Flip out and give him the chicken.
- Okay.
- [Man] All right. Flip mom said you can only have a strip,
so here you go.
- [Woman] What that's not a strip
(laughs)
- [Man] You're not gonna let him have the whole thing.
- I know
- [Man] I think we know why he loves me more.
- Yeah.
- [Man] Here you go good boy.
All right mom is probably right.
- [Woman] Zoe you excited?
- [Man] Zoe sit, ooh you're cute little girl,
oh good girl so gentle.
Okay all right, last piece.
(soothing music)
Okay, now for the best part,
let's make up the whole meal
and let them have their bowls of food.
- Kobe.
- [Woman] Yup.
- And then Flip - Zoe, Flip.
- Zoe is got the slow feeder bowl
because she eats too fast it's embarrassing.
Some T-bone right here.
Oh man, he's going to be so happy
- [Woman] And we're giving Kobe more protein
and it's cause our guys are seniors.
- Especially Zoe, she can't have as much protein.
She have a low protein diet
because she's a senior,
so more veggies and carb for her,
but she's still gonna really love this
Flip, he can have it, he can have a good amount of protein.
He's a big dog, all right.
- [Woman] That is a lot of food for a little puppy.
- Yeah, but he's grown fast, man he needs it.
Flip is ready, you know that's your bowl don't you.
I'm gonna do Flip and Zoe first
because I'm gonna let Kobe just kind of have his moment.
One, two, three oh wait, yeah again three!
(light music) (slurping)
It is a lot of fun to make food for a dog
and watch them eat it.
I bet this is what like human chefs like real chefs
- Probably. - Feel like
- All right Kobe - All right , you ready
- [Woman] It's what you have been waiting for,
- Let's see if he can sit.
- I don't know if he can sit. - Sit! Sit!
- Kobe sit. - sit sit.
(cheers)
- Ooh good boy. - You dit it good boy
(slurping)
- I mean, that's pretty good, look at that.
- [Woman] Oh man, he is one happy pup.
- Boy, this full puppy belly. (laughing)
- [Woman] So cute.
- So cute
