The Captain America star met Pippa, an active puppy with a "bum" hind limb, Akira, a shy young dog working on her social abilities, and a few more canines, all of whom receive coos and cuddles from the Evans.

The 42-year-old spent hours handing out tasty goodies, hugging, and giving these infants belly massages.

The video concluded with the Gifted star covered in a swarm of happy pups.

The Ghosted actor opened up about his collaboration with Jinx to PEOPLE last year: “You're always looking for things like this in my profession, finding companies or products that align with your passions, and obviously everyone knows how much I love dogs.

He continued, “Meeting with everyone at Jinx, they not only share the passion, but they have a fantastic product that my dog loves, so it was kind of a no-brainer."

The Push star has previously stated that adopting Dodger from the pound was the 'greatest choice' he's ever made.

Further, Jinx and Evans shared the mission of delivering high-quality pet food to all animals, particularly those in shelters.
