We interviewed Barb Natividad From Chicago, IL, USA with her dog, Rudy!
Tell us about Rudy!
"Rudy is a beagle/American Staffordshire Terrier mix. He loves playing fetch and puppucinos."
"PAWS Chicago"
"I volunteer for two animal rescues. I’m also a fur momma to Rudy and our two cats."
Tell us a story!
"Shortly after my husband and I adopted him, we took Rudy on a canine cruise on the Chicago River. It was so much fun. He even wore a life vest!"
What do you think it means to be a pet? What is a pet's purpose in this life?
“Pets have many purposes such as providing companionship and showing us what unconditional love is.”
How does your pup spark joy in your life?
"Rudy sparks joy in my life by simply being him. His presence is soothing.”
What do you think are the most pressing issues that are in the pet industry today?
“Over Crowding in Shelters”
Do you think it's more important to talk about the issues or act on them?
"Both. Conversate and discuss to other humans about the issues and Volunteer or donate to help the animals out there in need.”
Thank you for sharing your story! We hope this will Spark someone to go out and make a difference in an animal’s life. We are so lucky to have doggies in our life!
