Meet Kuma
Breed: Mixed Breed
Barking from: Wellington
What's up dog?
Kuma is a rescue that had severe separation anxiety, instead of sending her to day care I made a bet that if the work TikTok could get 3k views on one of my videos, Kuma, along with my other dog Dobby and my foster dogs would be allowed into the office with me, @wellyfun Kuma is now the main character on the tik Tok page and helped us get some attraction! Kuma comes in every Wednesday, and the whole office looks forward to her arriving! Its the one day nobody works from home or misses, when the staff is fed up of sitting at their desks, they take Kuma for a walk around the block and come back refreshed and ready! Kuma (who is a fantastic foster mum to many different species of animals), has got an amazing skill when it comes to reading peoples emotions and always knows who needs a bit of 1-1 attention and cuddles!
