Furry Friends on the Job: Say hello to Boe from Central Diamond Center
Say hello to The Face of Boe! Named after a Doctor Who character, Boe is a 5-year old Miniature Dachshund. Boe’s human is Emily Perry, a Sales Associate/Graphic Designer at Central Diamond Center in Richardson, Texas. The little guy was recently diagnosed with cancer and during the recovery process from a surgery, Emily’s employer, Eli Meloul allowed her to bring Boe to work so she could keep an eye on him. Well, everyone fell in love with him and Eli told Emily she could bring him in as often she’d like. Boe has settled into the role of greeter and “vibe checker” at the store. He greets customers with a few sniffs to make sure they are on the up and up, or he could be looking for treats – it’s hard to tell. Then he’ll look up at them with his watery eyes and they’ll sit on the floor and love on him while Emily takes in a repair. Boe is obsessed with food and is constantly on the lookout for crumbs on the floor or handouts. He’s not fond of the tall counters because he can’t see Emily on the other side. Poor thing doesn’t always understand he could walk around them to find Emily on the other side. Join us in wishing Boe all the best in his battle with cancer!
