Today we got the honor of interviewing Gustavo (Zeus'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?
Dantas: Zeus is a dog rescued from the street. He came with some illnesses that we treated as soon as we adopted him. He always had a lot of expression in his eyes, sometimes with very funny faces.
What do you think sets your dog apart from other dogs on social media? What makes them unique or particularly interesting to your followers?
Dantas: His facial expressions, and especially his gray and white color. Which is very unusual in a stray dog.
How do you come up with ideas for your dog's posts and content? Do you have a specific creative process?
Dantas: Yes, I always write a script, filming and editing. I leave the creative parts and ideas for the videos to my wife.
Have you ever faced any challenges or negativity on social media, and how have you dealt with it?
Dantas: Not until now.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own dog influencer account or share their dog on social media?
Dantas: Do not give up. Persist and always improve.
How has your dog influenced your life outside of social media?
Dantas: My wife and I are more reserved, we appear in the videos, but we prefer to focus on Zeus, who is the big star.
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?
Dantas: The time he was sleeping, and I woke him up to record. He made a face like he wasn't happy at all. He looked at me for a few moments and went back to sleep.
What is your favorite thing about being a dog influencer?
Dantas: Being able to bring a little of Zeus' joy to our fans all over Brazil.
Lastly, what's next for you and your dog on social media? Any exciting plans or projects in the works?
Dantas: So far we have some plans for the future. We will have news soon.
