A once-homeless dog is now enjoying life by frolicking through some of Los Angeles’ trendiest restaurants. In 2014, Ivy Diep discovered the stray and named him Popeye after finding him on the streets. Moved by his thin, matted appearance, Diep decided to take him in. Popeye quickly bonded with her husband and their other dogs, fitting right into their family.
During one of their Instagram dates, she brought along Popeye, her companion. They frequently visit and review restaurants on Instagram, capturing photos and sampling new dining spots. To her surprise, she discovered that Popeye is an excellent dining partner—he remains calm around food and poses perfectly for pictures with a smile.
No need to worry—Popeye doesn’t actually get to enjoy all the delicious treats featured in the photos, as his parents only provide him with dog-safe food. They created an Instagram account called “Popeye the Foodie Dog” to share Popeye’s culinary adventures throughout LA.
