One couple from Alaska found viral fame when they decided to start their own dog-walking business—but probably not in the way you think. Their TikTok page became a true sensation after they started sharing videos from “doggy daycare” bus, where puppies ride the bus like humans.
Mo and Lee Thompson are based in Skagway, Alaska, and they’re the founders of the dog-walking business Mo Mountain Mutts. The couple specializes in trail dog pack walks and puppies, but there’s something that separates them from other dog walkers out there.
Their business initially started off small, with Mo taking her friends’ dogs out for walks during her lunch break, but she’s now taking care of so many dogs that she needs an entire bus to fit them all!
She started working with some teachers at a local school, and the business eventually expanded so much that Lee had to jump in to help her. They’re now taking care of two packs of dogs in the cold Alaskan winter, and they bought a bus from a local business to make things easier.
The Thompsons are also experienced dog trainers, and that’s part of the reason why their videos went viral. The dogs they care for are so peaceful and well-behaved that they have no trouble sitting on a bus without making a fuss.
