Tell us about the humans behind your business!
The three humans behind Three Humans and a Dog are Marcus, Zaida and Nikki. Marcus is the Business Director and Super Dad of our group. Zaida, aka Momma Z, is our fab Creative Director and the one that helps us stay on track. Nikki is our fun-loving social media advisee, studying at Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA. We are a three-pack prize, best friends and quirky bunch that love to experience life by each other’s side.
What else would you like readers to know?
We offer a personalized experience with our brand, especially with our pet bandanas. You are able to mix match your fabrics, which is something not really offered in the market at this time.
If you had one tip to share with a dog owner trying to care for and spoil his or her pet on a budget, what would it be?
We have found that the best way to spoil your dog is actually free, and something you can’t buy: your time! Carving out time to play with them, exercise with them, even calling them to follow you around the house makes them feel wanted and important. That’s better than anything money can buy!
You can find Three Humans and A Dog at their website, on Facebook, on Instagram, on Twitter, and on Pinterest!
