00:00Okay, I want to tell you guys about Brian and Maxine.
00:03Brian's the human.
00:05Maxine is his corgi.
00:07Oh, hi.
00:08So Brian lives in New York City, and he would, on his way to work, put Maxine in his dog-carrying backpack.
00:16Of course.
00:17And jump on the subway.
00:17Right.
00:18And he said he noticed that people just loved seeing Maxine on the subway.
00:24Having the dog in their presence would bring them so much joy.
00:29So he thought, you know what?
00:31I'm going to do something about this.
00:32So he started a business where he makes dog-carrying backpacks.
00:38No way.
00:40But he's not done yet.
00:42He also got in touch with many shelters throughout the area.
00:46And Brian now doesn't just bring his dog to work on occasion.
00:50But every day, he's got a different dog on his back that can be adopted.
00:55Whoa.
00:56Genius.
00:57Shelter dogs.
00:57That is so smart.
00:59He is carrying shelter dogs all over New York City.
01:02And since he started this, his Facebook page and Instagram page has racked up like 75 million views.
01:10Dogs are flying out of shelters because people are falling in love with them when they meet these dogs on the subway with Brian.
01:17That is so genius.
01:19Wow.
01:19To get those dogs adopted from a business standpoint of promoting.
01:23I mean, Andy, this is an A-plus pup cup here.
01:26Pup cup.
01:27Yep.
01:27Absolutely.
01:28Because imagine, I mean, how often?
01:30I mean, listen, I love my dog.
01:32We've had some rough times, but we're in a really good place right now.
01:34But how often do you see another dog?
01:36You're like, oh my gosh, I want to take him home.
01:38And then when you find out that's not his or her dog, you're like, all right, where do I sign?
01:44And seriously, you should see the photos that he has posted on Instagram.
01:48So, you know, like the dogs all look joyful, obviously, because you're catching that one moment where they look really cute.
01:54But some of them are like, you know, like pretty girls leaning over, you know, like he's, Brian's kind of leaning out of the picture because these attractive women are on the subway.
02:04He is brilliant.
02:05I know what he's really doing.
02:06Yeah.
02:07You got game, Brian.
02:08I know.
02:08Seriously.
02:09Well, shout out.
02:10What do you have the name of the backpack business there?
02:13Little Chonk.
02:15Little Chonk.
02:16Little Chonk.
