Remember Graham Cracker, the sweet shelter puppy who got to go on tour with Pink as the pop star’s foster dog? Well now there has been an inspiring update to his story ❤️
Last month, while the Grammy-winning superstar was in St. Paul, Minnesota as part of her North American tour, she reached out to local shelter The Bond Between and asked about fostering one of their dogs, named Graham Cracker.
Graham Cracker ended up in the shelter after a girl named Autumn found his mother in the woods of Vilonia, Arkansas, alone and struggling to care for her puppies, according to FOX 9.
The girl tried to care for the puppies on her own, but eventually her mother contacted Jak’s Second Chance Rescue Ranch, and later the dogs were taken in by The Bond Between. One of Graham Cracker’s brothers, named S’more, has also found a foster home.
Pink’s idea was to take Graham Cracker on tour with her as a foster, hoping to raise awareness and find him a forever home. It’s something that Pink, a dog lover and advocate for adoption, had done in past tours. The Bond Between was thrilled by the idea.
“She’s taking Graham on the adventure of a lifetime with her and her family on tour, with the goal of helping him find his forever home by the end of it!” The Bond Between announced on social media. “We brought him to her show, and we can already tell she’s falling for him.”
“From a pile of fallen branches to backstage with a Pink, Graham is now getting the love and care he deserves, all while P!NK helps us spread the powerful message of fostering and adopting.”
Pink herself broke the news on stage during one of her recent shows, joking that the dog was backstage and “currently peeing all over my dressing room.” “He’s gonna go on this big carnival adventure with us,” the “So What” singer told the crowd.
The plan was to find the dog a home by November 20 and have the family pick him up at a concert in Columbia, South Carolina. However, it soon became clear that Pink was becoming attached to the dog. She called Graham Cracker the “sweetest, gentlest boy to ever be born” and raised the possibility of adopting him herself: “We’re probably gonna keep him. But this is the idea, so we’ll see where this goes,” she said during a concert.
Weeks later, in a November 19 social media post, Pink shared an update about Graham Cracker. He had officially been adopted… by Pink! “It’s official … I am a foster fail!” Pink wrote, joking that she’s “never been happier to fail.”
“Thank you to [The Bond Between] for not only bringing him into our lives, but for all the tireless hard work they do to help rehome all their animals,” she added.
Thank you to Pink for fostering this sweet pup on the road and now giving him a loving forever home! 💕 Please share this heartwarming update!
