Los Angeles, CA, 2015 – You’ve probably seen The
Dancing Doge, the viral internet sensation featuring an adorable Shiba Inu who
just loves to dance. If not then Google search away. His strut to the Bee Gees’
“Staying Alive” and Drake’s “Hotline Bling” has hundreds of millions of
views. His Vine page is amazing too. The
videos have taken the online world by storm, being described by The Huffington Post as their ‘favorite
thing on the internet’. His owner Cal
Boyington, one of the originators of Comedy Central’s Workaholics, has big plans for him, and is launching a bid to
transform him into a household brand. After the success of similar ventures by the
likes of Lil Bub and Grumpy Cat, it’s high time a dog followed suit. He is currently seeking funding via the
crowdfunding platform Kickstarter to help him to achieve his mission.
The
Dancing Doge’s newest venture is set to feature a hilarious music video, faux
game show, and reality-show dance-off parody to establish a merchandise and
publishing line around. Dancing Doge
will participate in charity work, media appearances and open himself up for
commercials and TV and film cameo appearances.
Those
who pledge support to this project can expect rewards including access to limited
swag, shout-outs, behind-the-scenes footage of The Dancing Doge’s show, and the chance to spend an afternoon with the Doge
himself. The Dancing Doge is already an online icon. It’s looks as if he’s set
to achieve similar status in the offline world as well. Check the Kickstarter
