Not only is Josh Duhamel a great parent to his son Axl, he’s also an excellent dog dad. He also has a new webseries with PetSmart Charities called Rescue Waggin’: Tales from the Road which features inspiring stories of dogs moving from overcrowded shelters to ones where they have more of a chance.
He knows how rewarding being a puppy parent can be.
It can be a lot of responsibility, "but you get back ten-fold," Josh said. "It's so much fun to teach them new things and to even potty train them."

He didn't have pets growing up, so he has a newfound appreciation for them.
Because he didn't grow up with animals, it "didn’t resonate with me. I didn't understand the impact they could have on you," he said.

He knows that getting a dog ready to go on the adoption floor is a lot of hard work.
"You're kind of like a used dog salesman," Josh joked. Shelters that he's worked with around the country, including ones like Animal Humane Society in Golden Valley, Minnesota, really make sure all animals are ready for adoption before they're shown to any potential new families. They're washed and trained, just for you!
