Louboutina is a Golden retriever who could pass as a local celebrity in NYC, with a huge following on social media.
On her Instagram profile she has more than 189k followers.
Louboutina, who is named after a French shoe designer, spends around 2 hours a day hugging people she meets during her daily walks.
Her owner, 45-year-old Fernandez-Chavez, explained: “It’s just not a regular walk. It’s a walk with hugging. A lot of people say she’s made their day… Like, if they had a bad day at work, maybe that’s just what they needed.”Her owner explained how it all started back in 2014 on Valentine’s Day: “She started sitting up and grabbing my hands with both of her paws, and then crossing the other paw over her paw. I remember joking with my friends, ‘At least I have someone to hold hands with during Valentine’s.’”
If you ever happen to be in New York City, all you have to do is drop an e-mail to her owner, Fernandez-Chavez, and you can get a hug yourself.
