![]() ![]() ![]() My friends Jessi Klein and Amy Schumer were filming Inside Amy Schumer at the time, and I sent them a picture and was like ‘Oh my God. I met Poppy, and she climbed in my lap and started licking me and I was like: Oh s–t. It was no joke! It was harder than getting a credit card, and you know, for me it’s hard to get a credit card. I went over there to meet Poppy after talking to Katie on the phone. She was being fostered by Toast Meets World and Muppet, two sort of celebrity internet Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and their mom, Katie Sturino, who fosters a lot of dogs. It was this little Pomeranian named Poppy and she was like a supermodel. So, about two years ago I started seeing this dog repeatedly pop up on social media through Petfinder’s sponsored posts. I thought maybe next year, on Valentine’s Day, I could spend it with an actual dog and not just the pretty ones on television. I would curl up with a bottle of Chardonnay and look at fluffy animals like cats and dogs, too, because I love the Westminster Dog Show and it’s always on around Valentine’s Day. I know, it was kind of messed up, but that’s how I felt. The grief they were experiencing was really hard to watch but in a weird way, I thought: Man, I want to feel like that. I have a ton of friends and have a rich life, but still, I felt something was missing.Ī couple of years ago, three of my closest friends all lost their dogs. I live in New York and I live a pretty selfish existence. My parents are divorced and when I was growing up my mom would always tell me, A) Your father is a prick and B) You can’t really trust anyone but yourself. I’ve been single for most of my adult life. ![]()
