Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick flaunt a relationship any celebrity couple would admire. Unlike other celebrity couples, Kevin and Kyra are very vocal about their advocacy on dogs. Although Kevin and Kyra have been married for three decades already, they never wavered to help as many dogs as possible.
Despite a painful ordeal in 2012, where their beloved pooch Paulie died of old age, the couple chose to transcend the pain and continue their advocacy. After this, the couple became home to as many dogs as possible. In an interview, Kevin and Kyra mentioned that they have a special place for pit bulls.
The two explained that they prefer pit bulls because people misjudge this dog breed. For the couple, the dog’s appearance should not be the basis for people to pass on their judgment. Kevin and Kyra know that pit bulls are kind dogs, so they adopt several abandoned pit bulls as long as they can.
In their Instagram posts, the couple favors Lily and Rocky due to the dogs’ incredible stories. Their previous owners abandoned both of the dogs for unknown reasons. Good thing, volunteers from different animal shelters learned about the dogs’ ordeal and took them under their care.
When the couple heard about the dogs’ stories, Kevin and Kyra immediately decided to adopt the two dogs for good. Their decision to adopt the two dogs became one of the best choices in their life. The adoption came a few months after their beloved Paulie’s death.
It was not an easy decision, but the two said that they are happy they decided to adopt Lily and Rocky. According to the couple, Lily and Rocky helped them appreciate life even more. More than this, the two dogs helped them recover from the painful loss after Paulie died.
