DOGFLUENCERS: Meet Maxx, Miami's Viral 5 Year Old Mini Aussie
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 Ana (Maxx'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?
Jagodinski: Everything started to keep our families updated on Maxx's adventures. All the new experiences with him, the backpacking trips, beach days, and the cute photos and videos for sure!
What do you think sets your dog apart from other dogs on social media? What makes them unique or particularly interesting to your followers?
Jagodinski: His curiosity for life. That’s why we named him The Curious Maxx. He is always looking for something, which is kind of funny because he is never scared of new things and at the same time, he is always alert to what is happening around him. The way he learns so quickly is also amazing, but being so curious is what makes him unique.
How do you come up with ideas for your dog's posts and content? Do you have a specific creative process?
Jagodinski: We normally like to show things people can do with their dogs too! Maxx came into our lives in California 2018, and so far we had visited together more than 26 states and Canada. The creative process is living these adventures across the United States with him.
Have you ever faced any challenges or negativity on social media, and how have you dealt with it?
Jagodinski: I think that nowadays the internet always has negative comments, so it's something we learn to deal with over time. The best we can do is to keep a positive vibe! And gladly Maxx has attracted so many great followers that always have positive things to say!
What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own dog influencer account or share their dog on social media?
Jagodinski: Just start now and be yourself! Don't compare yourself to others. And don't forget the most important part of all this is to live happy moments with your dog.
How has your dog influenced your life outside of social media?
Jagodinski: Pretty much everything we do is for Maxx. The only difference is that now we get invited to dog events and parties that we think everyone that has a dog that is friendly should go too!
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?
Jagodinski: We have a really cute photo of him when he was still a puppy and played so much that he got tired of walking and in the end he had to be carried by us.
What is your favorite thing about being a dog influencer?
Jagodinski: Is to show people how special Maxx is! We receive messages from people all over the world and of all ages. That's the best part! We can connect with people from different countries and cultures with one thing in common = the love we have for dogs.
Lastly, what's next for you and your dog on social media? Any exciting plans or projects in the works?
Jagodinski: We always have plans! We definitely want to take Maxx on many more trips and also find more treats, toys, and activities to share with his followers.
