Today we got the honor of interviewing Dayna (Nitkita & Bear & Rain & Callie'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?
Cucci: I wanted to document all my babies lives. Nikita came into my life just a month and a half ago. I wanted to show her life from an 8 week old puppy until adult hood. This journey lead me to experience many different amazing products for my beloved babies.
What do you think sets your dog apart from other dogs on social media? What makes them unique or particularly interesting to your followers?
Cucci: Nikita is a Siberian Husky and she has a lot of sass in such a small body. She is extremely energetic and keeps her older sibling on their toes. She has brought the puppies out of them.
How do you come up with ideas for your dog's posts and content? Do you have a specific creative process?
Cucci: I usually post daily life of my 4 dogs. Life of pack. My dogs are extremely bonded. Nikita is the only one that is not blood related but she fits in perfectly. I try to post the funny things my pack does and their silly antics.
Have you ever faced any challenges or negativity on social media, and how have you dealt with it?
Cucci: I have been very lucky with not a lot of negativity. The pet community is an amazing place. Such supportive and caring friends. I try just to ignore any negativity. My page is all about positivity and making happy memories.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own dog influencer account or share their dog on social media?
Cucci: There will always be negativity around just roll with the punches. I’ve made some awesome friends it’s been so worth creating my account. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
How has your dog influenced your life outside of social media?
Cucci: My dogs have made me want to be like them. To love unconditionally and to always be kind.
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?
Cucci: Nikita is still a work in progress. She’s only 14 weeks old. But she once picked up her water bowl and dumped the whole thing on the floor. And then she throw her water bowl around as to say “it’s empty mom need more water” 😂
What is your favorite thing about being a dog influencer?
Cucci: The amazing products we get to try to make our precious babies life so much better. For me getting our fi collar for Nikita. Huskies are known to be escape artists so I wanted to make sure she was always safe and we could track her if she ever got out. My Bear was our first to get a fi collar when he got out and was gone for 8 days. I was in a panic and searched everywhere. Luckily I found him and we got him a fi collar right away. Now I feel safe because we know we will be able to know exactly where he is. I wanted that security for Nikita.
Lastly, what's next for you and your dog on social media? Any exciting plans or projects in the works?
Cucci: Just to make people happy and smile. To brightens someone’s day that maybe needs it. I want to show Nikita growing up and her silly antics. I want people to see what it’s like to have a pack of 4 dogs.
