Awesome. Like, Wow. Like Totally Freak Me Out.

When I was young, I knew I was going to be a veterinarian when I grew up. I loved animals so, no brainer, right? I was so excited when I actually got a job at a local vet’s office – cleaning kennels, feeding the animals and helping with odd jobs.

One of those odd jobs ended up being cutting the heads off of cats that had died of suspected rabies. Since rabies lives in the brain, the head was shipped off for testing. I quit that job and my dream of being a vet.

Now, almost 30 years later, I am channeling my love for animals in a different way – as volunteer, foster and president of the board for a local dog rescue. It’s amazingly rewarding work and I will dedicate another blog post to share more about it.

But for now, I just want to share this. When we’re having trouble getting attention for a specific dog, we like to create social stories to help drum up excitement. I’ve taken on the role of creating some of these stories. The most recent one, for an amazing soda pop gal named Sierra Mist might be, not just my best story, but the greatest single piece of work I’ve ever created.

I hope I haven’t oversold it.

Turn on your sound, dudes.

Adopt Sierra Mist. And also hire me to make silly videos for your next party.
