Lilybug the Hugging Dog: Breaking the Stigma Around Bully Breeds
The Dogist: Talking Dogs - A podcast by The Dogist
Categories:
Historically, Bully breeds have been wrongly discriminated against, and our guest this week works tirelessly to help change that narrative. Marisa Grimshaw is the Head of PR and Marketing Communications for Rhone, a men's performance lifestyle brand. In addition to her full-time job, Marisa is also the social media manager and full-time assistant to her dog, Lilybug. Marisa fostered and adopted Bug in 2013 while co-running Mr. Bones & Co. , a 501c3 animal welfare nonprofit and rescue organization, and now advocates for Bully breeds through Lilybug's social following of almost 500,000. On this episode we discuss the stigma around Bully breeds, fostering tips, and managing a social media following with a full time job.
