And you think that your job is to help others.

I don't need help.

But people are human.

They're not robots, right?

And it's hard to go back to a civilian life and live the rest of your life out after...

seeing so much and experiencing these traumas and part of the work i part of what i want to encourage in showing these stories is to hopefully help some people who are struggling to feel comfortable and like they deserve to have a dog i want to bring this back to something lighter for a moment yes you have interviewed or i shouldn't say interviewed you've

Of course, Bill Murray.

I mean, yeah, it was unreal.

I grew up watching Caddyshack.

I was starstruck myself.

and he's the ultimate character everything you say he's like cracking like the perfect joke and he's a dog lover as well no surprise he's had dogs over the years and he had been doing this press junket for the movie friends all day he was doing interviews and so he's probably a bit tired but i remember he came out and we had about 20 minutes to shoot this he was going to help me find dogs on the street

And I could just see when we described what we were doing, you're going to help us find dogs.

He's like, really?

This is great.

I love this concept.

And so he lit up and Naomi lit up.

And every dog that we met, you could see his curiosity and his excitement.

peak and that was awesome to see someone who has had so much experience doing all types of things an incredible life he's led to see him have this childlike curiosity and i was so glad that i could show him what it's like to be the doggest to live my life and through the rest of the week he would was going on interview shows he was on howard stern talking about his movie promoting that but he kept bringing up the dog he kept bringing up the doggest

He's like to Howard, have you heard of the Doggist?

And he's like, no, I haven't.
