“Do you want to have a really cozy book afternoon?”
When actress Raegan Revord found out she’d be going on a Dodo Dream Date, she decided to make it extra special — by starting a book club with her date, a 7-year-old pup named Kringle.
Kringle had recently been surrendered by his previous family and is now searching for a fresh start. So Raegan wanted to give him a cozy, comforting experience he’d never forget. The two quickly bonded, snuggling up and getting to know each other before diving into their brand-new book club.
“Do you want to have a really cozy book afternoon?” Raegan asked Kringle in a video for The Dodo.
To make sure he was fully on board, Raegan presented him with two options — a book or a TV remote. Without hesitation, Kringle chose the book.
“This is my soulmate,” Raegan said with a laugh.
As their afternoon unfolded, Raegan asked Kringle a few thoughtful questions, adding to his growing collection of toys, and quickly realized they shared very similar tastes in reading. Once the questions were done, she let Kringle in on a little secret: she’s releasing her own book this September.
“It’s called Rules for Fake Girlfriends, and it has fake dating and a scavenger hunt,” Raegan said, her excitement shining through.
She went on to share the inspiration behind the story, then answered a playful question: which literary character is Kringle most like? Her answer? Ron Weasley.
“I feel like he’s giving Ron Weasley,” Raegan said. “Ron’s very endearing and loud and fun — but also really sweet.”
To wrap up their dreamy book date, Raegan read aloud from her upcoming novel, and Kringle listened attentively, soaking up the cozy vibes — and plenty of pets and scratches.
Though Raegan’s story has a happy ending in the works, Kringle’s chapter is still waiting to be written. This lovable pup is still single and hoping to find his forever home very soon.
