'White House Plumbers' star Justin Theroux's adorable pup Kuma's history
On Saturday night, Justin Theroux attended the esteemed White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington, DC with his beloved pet, Kuma, a pit bull whom he adopted from A Chance To Bloom Dog Rescue, a non-profit organization based in Texas in 2018. Keeping in mind the presence of guests at the Washington Hilton Hotel, the 51-year-old actor made sure to keep Kuma on a leash. Kuma's journey to being rescued by Theroux is a testament to the resilience of animals. She was discovered amidst the ruins of Hurricane Harvey in 2017 and taken in by A Chance To Bloom Dog Rescue, which saved her from a kill shelter. Since then, Theroux has been committed to supporting animal shelters and adoption organizations by providing his time, money, and influence to their causes.
