He performed there this past Thursday and Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Nate apparently fell in love and decided to rescue one of the dogs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a rescue, doesn&#8217;t look like a rescue, but it is. Looks like it was rescued from a mansion, this dog&#8217;s doing better than me,&#8221; he said on stage while holding his new pup.<\/p>\n<p>The best part: he named the new dog Philly.<\/p>\n<p>Bargatze had previously joked that his wife didn&#8217;t want the family to have more than one dog, saying it would be too much work. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DNHobvLOAgR\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">You can watch his bit about that here<\/a>. It seems like either Laura has relented, or Nate will have some explaining to do when he comes home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I finally got my second dog,&#8221; he said in an Instagram post where he introduces Philly (the dog) to the audience.
