Being in a strange and unfamiliar place is stressful for anyone, and that holds true for dogs, too. Rescue pups often settle in with time and a lot of love and attention, which is essential as you get to know each other. And that’s important since, like people, dogs have their own unique quirks and personalities.
We see that play out as true in this video, where a rescue dog is settling into his home with his foster parents. He’s adjusting to the new space, sounds, smells, and routine, and has been pretty chill. Well, that is, until his parents sat down for dinner one night, and it seems they were having his favorite food.
TikTok user Isabel Klee (@simonsits) shared a video of their new rescue foster dog, who was unexpectedly taken home by Isabel when she visited the shelter for a different reason. The cute pup needed some attention and love; she was happy to provide it, and along the way, they learned a lot about each other. Specifically, much was learned about Labubu’s love of pizza.

In the clip, Labubu is hanging out with his family: his mom, dad, and dog brother. He was adjusting well to his surroundings, and he seemed very calm and relaxed. Then the family had pizza for dinner, but Dad didn’t want to give him a bite, and his personality completely changed. It’s hilarious because it looks like the sweet pup either really loves pizza or he completely despises it. But either way, it’s so funny to see him be so vocal about it.
In the comments, thousands of people took Labubu’s side with the pizza situation.
One person wrote, “My dad saves crusts for his dog. He calls them pizza bones.”
Another shared, “I think someone used to get the pizza bones, and he wants you to know about it.”
Someone else added, “He can’t tell [you] where he’s been or where he’s from, but he will make sure [you] know he wants pizza.”
Other comments included, “He said I TRIED ASKING NICELY MR ISABEL,” “He came from the streets of NY he knows pizza,” “Noted: no Creed, no pizza,” “It’s his right as a New Yorker to express strong, loud feelings about pizza,” and “He wanted to make sure you knew pizza bones were his favorite. He has excellent communication skills!”

How To Help Your Rescue Dog Feel Safe and Secure
Labubu is the silliest little pizza-loving dog, and we can see how loved and cared for he is with his current foster parents. And because he’s so comfortable, it’s safe to assume they’re taking all the steps to help their rescue dog feel secure, which is important.
According to the Animal Humane Society, if you have a rescue dog who is feeling a little insecure, anxious, or fearful, a few easy-to-follow rules can make a big difference. This includes things like taking your pup out for exercise, avoiding really stressful situations, maintaining eye contact, especially in those first few days, using treats, time, and toys to help them see that you’re there to keep them safe, happy, and loved.
And, in doing those steps, in no time you’ll start to see more of the pup’s personality come through, like silly Labubu here.
