KU grad may be world’s only celebrity dog reporter
What do the world’s most famous dogs really think about the issues of the day? For that we turn to Brie Strohmeyer, a reporter for DogNewsDaily.com, and perhaps the world’s only celebrity dog reporter, as the Lawrence Journal-World reports.
But Strohmeyer doesn’t just meet celebrity dogs. She said she also gets to meet the celebrities that come with them.
Strohmeyer met the cast of “The Artist” at the Golden Collar Awards. Uggie won “Best Dog in a Theatrical Film” at the award show. She has also met Katherine Heigl from “Grey’s Anatomy,” Carson Kressley from “Queer Eye” and even YouTube sensation Rebecca Black.
She said she has learned some interesting facts while on the job, too. For example, just like human actors and actresses, dogs have understudies, too.
“They’ll always have a backup,” she said.
Funny fact: She grew up a cat person.
