Today we got the honor of interviewing Rachael (Luna & Tig & Jax's Human). You can find a direct link to their Instagram here.
Here is their story:
Can you tell us about your journey to becoming a dog influencer? What inspired you to start sharing your dog's adventures on social media?
White: It started out as a bit of fun, sharing photos and videos of the dogs. Then we started talking to some amazing brands and working with them, even developing friendships and meeting up.
What do you think sets your dog apart from other dogs on social media? What makes them unique or particularly interesting to your followers?
White: I always describe our house as a "mad house" with 3 dogs, 1 cat, 2 kids and lots of other pets! I think people enjoy seeing the craziness😆 and what it's really like day to day. Also, with the 3 dogs being different breeds, sizes, ages, rescues and Tig being a dog that is shown we are relatable to a lot of people and dog owners.
How do you come up with ideas for your dog's posts and content? Do you have a specific creative process?
White: There are 2 types of content I post - the staged, so next to a product and might be themed for the time of year. Then the natural, us out on walks, meeting up with other dogs and just what they are doing, maybe having a snooze or mad zoomies in the house.
Have you ever faced any challenges or negativity on social media, and how have you dealt with it?
White: Yes, you will always get the odd negative comment. I try to educate as sometimes people just don't know, or think a 6-second video is enough time to make a judgment on but don't understand the full story.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own dog influencer account or share their dog on social media?
White: Just have fun with it. If you want to take it seriously and be an influencer for multiple companies be prepared it can feel like a part-time job.
How has your dog influenced your life outside of social media?
White: I've made so many amazing friends through the dog's account! Ones that I know talk to daily and meet up with. I've also learned a lot, especially about natural products and supplements that can help your dog and even yourself.
Can you tell us about a particularly memorable or funny moment you've had with your dog during one of your photo shoots or adventures?
White: Whenever there's food involved there's always one trying to sneakily steal some! When with groups seeing a complete wipeout was hilarious, both dogs were fine!
What is your favorite thing about being a dog influencer?
White: Meeting new people, dogs and working with the companies.
Lastly, what's next for you and your dog on social media? Any exciting plans or projects in the works?
White: Just to keep growing and sharing our crazy life!
