Today we got the honor of interviewing Maddy (Lacey'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?

Woznuk: I created Lacey’s Instagram page when she was about six months old. I was so obsessed with her and thought I needed to share her with friends and family, but I didn’t want to overwhelm my personal Instagram, so I decided to make her own page. I started off by sharing occasional photos, and then it turned into creating reels like Day In The Life vlogs of Lacey doing her favorite activities.

What do you think sets your dog apart from other dogs on social media? What makes them unique or particularly interesting to your followers?

Woznuk: Lacey's personality truly makes her stand out among other dogs. Lacey is a bundle of fun, constantly engaging in playful antics that never fail to amuse. I often capture her hilarious escapades on video, showcasing her unique charm and boundless energy. Her absolute obsession with her ball leads her to perform the most entertaining and endearing behaviors, making her a joy to be around.

How do you come up with ideas for your dog's posts and content? Do you have a specific creative process?

Woznuk: We don’t have a specific creative process. We usually just take lots of photos and videos of Lacey throughout the day doing cute, funny and crazy things. These snippets of her playful personality serve as the building blocks for our mini vlogs and social media posts, allowing us to share her joy with others. We also enjoy joining in on popular trends, adding an extra layer of excitement and engagement to our content creation journey.

Have you ever faced any challenges or negativity on social media, and how have you dealt with it?

Woznuk: We have been very lucky and haven’t had to deal with much negativity on social media. There are a few comments here and there, but the majority are very positive and uplifting!

What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own dog influencer account or share their dog on social media?

Woznuk: I believe consistency is key. Strive to post daily and ensure your content stands out with uniqueness. It’s also essential to actively engage with both those you follow and your followers, responding to comments on your posts and interacting with others’ content.

How has your dog influenced your life outside of social media?

Woznuk: She has influenced me to embrace each day to the fullest and to pursue the things I love.

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?

Woznuk: Every day with Lacey is an adventure, but one of the most memorable was when I took her to a pet store. Everything started off well; she was her usual happy self, excited to see the workers. However, as the store got busier and other dogs arrived, Lacey began barking nonstop. In the moment, I felt overwhelmed, but to my surprise, the workers found it amusing and embraced her enthusiasm. Looking back, I can’t help but laugh at the chaos of the moment.

What is your favorite thing about being a dog influencer?

Woznuk: Two things come to mind: documenting Lacey’s life and adventures to look back on, and the joy of meeting new people and making friends through our shared experiences.

Lastly, what's next for you and your dog on social media? Any exciting plans or projects in the works?

Woznuk: We are committed to continuing to share Lacey’s delightful world, with hopes of collaborating with some of our favorite brands along the way.
