There is nothing like a good rescue dog story, and this one is for the books.

Meet Egg Roll, the sweetest little foster dog you ever did see.

She was just taken in by an influencer and dog dad, as well as foster dog dad Evan Cooper, who lives in Charleston, North Carolina, with his sweet rescue German Shepherd mix, Vader.

Rough start for Egg Roll today

sonido original - Evan Cooper

This is the second foster dog they have taken in, so they are pretty much professionals now.

Evan explains that Egg Roll, who is only a few months old, was found abandoned in a wheelbarrow with her siblings.

"But now she's with me and Vader," Evan says confidently into the camera as he takes the two dogs to the park.

Now, the beautiful Egg Roll's biggest problem is just trying to keep up with her athletic big brother and be a small dog in a big dog and people world.

But she's doing just fine!

She also has the most piercing light green eyes and looks like she has some Vizsla dog breed in her, based on the shade of her coat.

Egg Roll the Foster Puppy Has a Great First Day

First, after Evan introduces her to the camera, Egg Roll tries to climb on the table her dad is standing on, but she doesn't quite make it.

Then they go to the playground, but Egg Roll has to climb over a little barrier, which impedes her a bit, but she has success.

When they turn to leave, she has no trouble with the barrier at all. What a fast learner!

Plus, then Evan is amazed when the small female dog does a spin right into a pee!

He gives her a leaf to chew on, which Vader tries to steal, but she holds her own.

Evan tells the camera that her government name is Deviled Egg, but he likes Egg Roll better, and we agree!

Then the trio is back in the car, and this very exhausted puppy is already passed out.

What a great day!

To see more of Egg Roll learning the ropes from her dad and Vader, definitely follow this account.

Here is a cute one of her getting to know her foster brother better.
