What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own dog influencer account or share their dog on social media?
Kilday: I would say to always remember you can take breaks if you need to! It can be very overwhelming seeing or thinking you need to post how everyone else is. Do or post what you want and only do it as long as you’re enjoying it!!
How has your dog influenced your life outside of social media?
Kilday: Oz truly keeps me going he gets me out of bed every day, good day & bad. His love for the outdoors has made me realize how much I love it as well and we’ve gotten to enjoy so much of life together! We go on all the camping trips and hiking trails and I am so grateful for him!
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?
Kilday: Ozzy loves to watch the squirrels and one time we were taking pictures and he was watching them like usual. Well this time he decided to run for them and took me down in the process! We can look back and laugh on it now haha
What is your favorite thing about being a dog influencer?
Kilday: I love being able to connect with all the other dog parents!
Lastly, what's next for you and your dog on social media? Any exciting plans or projects in the works?
