DOGFLUENCERS: Meet Freddy, Instagram's Favorite Australian Labradoodle
Welcome to the ultimate destination for dog enthusiasts and social media mavens alike. At Dogfluencers, we're passionate about showcasing the best and brightest in the world of four-legged fame.
Whether you're looking for adorable photos, heartwarming stories, or expert tips on how to turn your own pup into a social media star, we've got you covered.
Today we got the honor of interviewing Emma (Freddy'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?
Xu: I already take so many photos and videos of my dog, figured why not share this journey with more people and promote training and good companionship with dogs
What do you think sets your dog apart from other dogs on social media? What makes them unique or particularly interesting to your followers?
Xu: He is very happy and goofy all the time, always down for any adventures and also loves modeling and taking photos.
How do you come up with ideas for your dog's posts and content? Do you have a specific creative process?
Xu: I record moments through out our daily lives and look for inspirations on social media as well. Sometimes we set up special shoots or activities for special occasions.
Have you ever faced any challenges or negativity on social media, and how have you dealt with it?
Xu: Surprisingly no. Other than a few negative comments we saw on a face trimming video (saying that non professional groomers shouldn’t use scissors or thinning shears because they are dangerous), our feedback and responses have all been really positive.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own dog influencer account or share their dog on social media?
Xu: Be authentic, capture the real and candid moments.
How has your dog influenced your life outside of social media?
Xu: He changed my world. Shifted my priorities and showed me a whole new world of happiness that I never knew I could experience.
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?
Xu: Freddy meeting his group of best friends at one of the brand events. They are inseparable now.
What is your favorite thing about being a dog influencer?
Xu: My dog’s life is never boring. He also got to meet so many friends from it.
Lastly, what's next for you and your dog on social media? Any exciting plans or projects in the works?
Xu: Hoping to continue being a fabulous model this year and go on even more adventures.
