JOY CCO (Chief Cuddle Officer)

Joy was rescued in January of 2020 from the Cumberland Valley Animal Shelter in Chambersburg, PA. She was estimated to be around 4-5 years old at that time. She was very shy, nervous, and seemed to be unfamiliar with many normal things. Once she joined the Soundproof Cow sales team she really came out of her shell. She regularly visits each sales team member to make sure they don’t need help finishing their lunch and visits each employee in our production area on her way to the admin office where the “good treats” are kept. She attends the morning meeting every day to collect her chewy bone and then returns to her bed where she will settle in for a nice 4-5 hour nap. She has really embraced office dog life and we’re happy she’s part of the herd!
