Pink may be a successful performer but she's a failure at something else

 It's hard to say no when faced with adorable puppy dog eyes. Pop star P!nk would agree, as she announced that she is adopting the pup that moved her to foster him when she performed in Minneapolis recently. We call that a "foster fail." Not intending to adopt but ultimately the dog won her over.

P!nk got the puppy from local rescue The Bond Between in October and intended to keep him for a few weeks to raise awareness of fostering and have some company during her tour.  The dog, named Graham Cracker, won over the singer within a month. In an Instagram post Wednesday, P!nk thanked The Bond Between and promoted the rescue's fundraising efforts for "Give to the Max Day." The nonprofit says they raised over $900,000 thanks in part to her shout out and foster news. . 

Rachel Mairose, the organization's founder, initially couldn't believe a representative from P!nk's team had reached out about fostering one of their rescue puppies."My initial reaction was this is a scam... this can't be real," Mairose said with a laugh.

The local nonprofit has helped over 30,000 pets find homes, but the story of Graham Cracker — a puppy born in the woods under a collapsed deer stand in Arkansas — stands out. Mairose sees this as more than just a celebrity story though. It's an opportunity to raise awareness about shelter animals and fostering. 

"I think when people like P!nk give their name and platform to organizations that need help, it just goes to show what kind of human they actually are," she said.
