“I thought the magic of knowing your new friend immediately wasn’t real until I felt it!” Kathy shared. Upon seeing the cute pup, everything about him “spoke” to her, and she knew “it would be him.”

After Bertie was adopted from the Oklahoma shelter, he and Kathy now live happily together in New York City.

Kathy couldn’t get enough of the cute chocolate Pom — he looked like a tiny bear! So she created an Instagram account and shared lots of adorable photos.

It wasn’t long before Bertie became a famous Instagram pup. He now has over 439,000 followers!

Kathy shared that Bertie’s most popular photo must be when he was dressed as his look-alike, Paddington Bear.

Kathy recalls that it might’ve coincided with the theater showing of the Paddington 2 film.

“He really looked just like the bear in the movie, it was uncanny. He is a little bear cub,” she shared.
