What's up dog?
Ryder has been working with me in our delivery van at 99 Bikes for the past 2 years. He comes to work daily and visits our 22 stores, offices and warehouses from Tweed Heads to Maroochydore; Ipswich to Capalaba and surrounds. He wears his security vest and sits in the van sometimes when unloading or waits in store where he brightens all staffs days and even our customers in store and when doing our customer deliveries. Whilst I’m doing all the heavy lifting, Ryder sits on bike and stock boxes smiling at staff and customers appreciated smiles in return and a few licks or as he says kisses. He also likes to ride to work with Selina on her road bike wearing his Rexspecs and in his K9 Sportsac. If anyone has treats to spare he’s certain to sit, shake or high 5 on command. he’ll even sit on a bike and give out free hugs to all. Walk near his van and he’ll bark just to let staff know he’s there guarding his office! He brightens everyone’s day.
