'I've Pet That Dog' Makes Changes Amid Coronavirus

You have all met Gideon, the adorable 11-year-old boy Behind the popular 'I've Pet That Dog' twitter account. With more than 366K followers, Gideon posts daily photos of dogs he met while always adding an amusing dog's bio to it.

But now, amid the coronavirus pandemic, he had to make some major changes as he won't be able to physically meet those dogs he loves so much.

A few days ago, his mother, who runs the popular page, posted a message to all his fans: "With all that is going on right now, it seems wise for us to stay home as much as possible," Gideon's mom explained. "But he is not giving up on his project", she added and asked them to send her boy photos of dogs instead.

Of course, it didn't take long before the adorable canine snapshots started pouring in and Gideon could continue posting daily. But now, instead of actually getting a chance to meet all of the canines, the boy's posts are all about the dogs he "would love to pet."

Good for you, Gideon! We will definitely continue to follow you, especially during these days.
