A Silly But Gratifying Side-Hustle For Writers With Attitudes
Ask people to give you something to complain about.
Every fantastic business idea starts with a story, right?
This one is inspired by my neighbours who neglect the crap out of their poor dogs in the backyard. They’re actually barking as I type this because…when are they NOT barking?
Here’s the quick backstory on this brilliant business idea (that you should totally steal if you have a healthy dose of snark in your bones)
This is NOT a dog business but you need to bear with the backstory for the full picture. 😁
About a month ago, I called animal control because these poor young puppies were left huddling together in my neighbour’s yard, fully exposed to the elements in a sideways rain storm.
Officers showed up, taught the owners the basics of humane pet parenting, and then left.
Great….for a day or two.
But animal control can’t monitor the yard 24/7 and the people still don’t care about their puppies. They bark non-stop from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., and now it’s become a problem for me. I have a home office, a tolerance level, and loads of compassion for neglected animals.
But how can I tell them exactly how I feel without creating all out neighbour wars? And without having to steal their puppies and raise them myself?
Anonymously. That’s how.
Here’s the business idea…😆😆
