- Oh, hey, everybody.
Just checking some e-mails, answering some questions.
"Dear Kid President, I love your show."
Well, thank you. I love your e-mail.
Oh, here's a good one.
"Dear Kid President, do you have any pets?
Sincerely, Joshua." Well, you know, Joshua,
I get this question a lot, a whole lot.
I even got an e-mail from my friends
at the Banfield Pet Hospital.
"Kid President, we were wondering
if you have any heroes."
Do I have any pets? Do I have any heroes?
I don't just have a pet. I have a pet hero.
Yeah, you heard me right.
I got a pet hero
I think it's time that I introduce you guys to my dog.
This is my little friend, my little dog,
my pet hero, Annie.
My dog, Annie, you wonder why she's awesome?
Her name's Annie. She's playful.
She has awesome ears.
Show me your little ears.
[ Ding! ]
She loves sitting in my lap.
Come back, Annie!
[ Australian accent ] And you see her nose?
That's how you can tell she's poisonous or not.
[ Normal voice ] Dog kisses. Let me tell you about them.
They're gross. They smell bad.
Do not open your mouth.
Dog kisses do make me happy, but they're still gross.
Annie the dog
Hey, Annie, Hey, Annie
Hey, Annie
She loves me too much
One time, I fell in a well,
and Annie got a rope ladder and pulled me out.
- That's not true. - [ Laughs ]
Okay, okay, I'm just trying to say
that she's an awesome dog.
She's my pet hero. Give me some love.
See, I always wanted a dog,
so I begged my mom and dad. "Please, can I have a dog?
Please, can I have a dog? Please, can I have a dog?
I want a dog!"
I asked politely.
I begged.
Dog, dog, I need a dog
I need a dog, I need a dog
I helped out around the house.
Give me a dog, give me a dog
Give me a dog, oh, oh
I presented a PowerPoint presentation
why we should get a dog.
Dogs are cute. [ Imitates click ]
Dogs are awesome. [ Imitates click ]
I begged. I cried.
I pleaded and pleaded, and then they said yes.
We got to go to a shelter,
and we met each other for the first time.
We lucked out, man.
Remember seeing my cute face for the very first time?
I mean, she couldn't forget. Come on.
It was just meant to be.
I-I just knew. This is the dog. This is my dog.
Annie, and you a girl. You're my bae.
I have this thing called osteogenesis imperfecta.
It just means that my bones break sometimes.
I've had over 70 broken bones.
Every time I was going through a tough time,
this little girl has always been by my side.
That's what a good pet does.
That's what a good pet hero does.
They're always there for you.
So, we had a little bit of a scare when she got sick.
She had a tummy ache, but we fixed it.
And I never left her side.
I was right there with her, because I was worried.
And also, I had to be there. She was always by my side.
Annie, you're a pet hero, girl.
Heroes come in all shapes and sizes.
Some have capes. Some have tails.
Annie, you have a tail.
All heroes are just quietly making the world better
with little acts of kindness.
Some heroes are people who you see every day,
like parents, bus drivers. And some have lots of fur.
Annie taught me that pets are heroes, too.
If Annie had super power, it would be this,
making everyone around her feeling more loved and happy.
Annie likes to play, sleep, lay in the bed,
look out the window and bark, and be awesome.
It's meant to be. I just knew, this is my dog.
And I immediately just set out and tried to teach Annie
every trick I knew -- how to sit...
Sit! Sit! No.
She doesn't do that. Stay.
Stay! Stay! No, come back!
She sometimes does.
Scoop me a bowl of ice cream.
Scoop me up a bowl of ice cream.
Never worked. Make an inspiring YouTube video.
Give me a pep talk.
Come on, girl. Anytime now.
I can do that, but she can't.
She should have an e-mail address!
I mean, that dog with the blog,
he has an e-mail address and a blog.
Annie can talk. Speak.
Step it up, girl.
You know what I found out? It wasn't me teaching this dog.
It was this little dog teaching me.
Annie taught me important things, right?
Take time to snuggle.
Don't be stingy with your kisses.
Don't care what you look like
as long as you're having a good time.
And don't take life too seriously.
That's why she's my pet hero.
She makes me want to dance.
Did you just yawn? What's that? Come on.
Pets are heroes, too. Who's yours?
Tell us about your pet hero. I want to know.
We got more dancing to do.
KP and KP's dog out.
Annie, we got to go.
Yeah, she'll figure it out.
