[00:00] Hey, there. I'm Kayla, and this is Jarvis. I am a social media specialist for a collegiate esports team and in my free time, I enjoy hanging out with friends, going to the movies, and playing video games. Growing up in Florida, I spent a lot of time outside at the beach, playing with friends in the neighborhood, and hitting up the theme parks. I've always been a dog person. Growing up with family dogs, I was really excited to get a dog of my own. I had looked through all the usual channels of shelters and fosters, and pet adoption groups. I happened to stumble across a Facebook group and that's where I found him.
[00:37] This woman had posted that her dog had an accidental litter. The photo she posted were just so cute, I couldn't resist. I drove an hour and a half out, ready to fall in love with puppy. His original name was Houdini and boy, did he live up to it. Such a little escape artist. While Houdini was a great name, it just didn't fit all the way. Being a fan of Marvel, I was throwing around names like Stark and Captain, and Banner. Then I thought how cool would it be to have my own Jarvis. Tony Stark has Jarvis do things all the time. It should work for a dog too and thus, Jarvis became his name.
[01:14] Jarvis is now two and a half years old, and he is 50% Frenchton, 50% Standard Poodle, and 100% total accident. When he's not hogging the bed or directly under my feet, Jarvis loves to run around the backyard, chase squirrels, go for pup cup runs, and destroy plenty of toys. It's always an adventure with him.
[01:35] Ever since day one, we have been using Gooby pet products, specifically the X Step-In Harness has been awesome. We love how easy it is to step in, clip in, and go out and about. There's always a color that fits our vibe for the day and we get compliments everywhere we go. With Jarvis having such an odd-chest size, it's hard finding harnesses that fit him well. Thankfully, there are plenty of options with Gooby. We are so excited to be part of the Gooby family and we can't wait to see what happens next.
