Earlier in 2020, the staff at a Hyundai Prime dealership noticed the dog hanging around. At first, they thought it was just a temporary thing and the pup would soon move on to search for happiness elsewhere but as time went by, one thing became evident — he was determined to stay. So they let him. The dealership named the friendly stray Tucson Prime and hired him. They even gave him his own ID card and everything.

Even though the dog got hired back in May but his story got viral on social media earlier this week after the official handle of Hyundai Brazil posted images of the ‘pawfessional consultant’ on their Instagram account.

The showroom says the initial plan was to simply provide the dog refuge, but his ability to greet and interact with customers earned him a promotion.

Showroom manager Emerson Mariano told media outlet Top Motors Brazil that the feedback for Tucson’s customer service in the store has been extremely positive, and he said the environment in their organization has improved thanks to the dog’s “very caring and docile nature”.

Mariano says many customers returned to the showroom just to drop a hi to the dog and give him gifts.

The manager made the decision to take in the dog during a particularly rainy night when he felt so sorry for the stray, he just had to invite him inside and offer him food and water.

Mariano and the stray dog immediately formed a bond and suggested to the board that they adopt Tucson as a mascot. “After all, the company has always been pet friendly, so now, we decided to embrace this idea in practice too, having our own pet precisely at a more complicated time like this with so many abandoned animals,” he said.

After his adoption, Tucson was taken to a doctor to get all the necessary vaccinations and has not only become a real member of the team, but he’s even expected to star in a national advertisement campaign for Hyundai too.
