Tiffany Haddish recently spoke on her late dog during an appearance on Paris Hilton’s I Am Paris podcast, and opened up about how her canine helped her select men.
“I believe she came to me to just let me know who has an STD,” Haddish, 43, told Hilton. “She let me know what dudes to deal with and what dudes not to deal with.”
The comedian’s dog, Dreamer, died of cancer last year after spending 14 years with the actress.
“If a dude came in the house, she would walk up to him immediately,” Haddish said. “Greet them, she’d smile — like, she’s a blue-nosed pit bull, so she has this big ol’ smile — and then she’d instantly smell their genitals.”
Dreamer would “smell their butt, and then she would come over to me, and she would sit. And if she sat and just sat there and just like, kind of smiled, it’s all good,” Haddish said, adding that her beloved dog would even give her a signal if something was wrong with the person.
“If she sat there and she started sneezing,” Haddish said, “I’m like, ‘Oh, he’s sick.’”
“I would say something. I would be like, ‘When’s the last time you got a checkup? When’s the last time you went to the doctor?’ And they would be like, ‘What, what, uh, what?” she continued.
However, Haddish said Dreamer’s behavior didn’t immediately turn her off as long as the potential suitors were willing to see a doctor. And most of the time, according to Haddish, Dreamer was right.
“They would go, and they would have stuff,” the comedian said.
“She knew,” Haddish continued. “She could smell it. She was an STD-sniffing dog.”
As for Haddish dating life now, she revealed that she has “associates.”
“I want to be in love, but I date. I have friends,” she said. “Before fame, I could have some, you know, ho moments. I can’t have no ho moments.”
