Canada Post strike could halt Nova Scotia dog influencer’s Christmas cards
Global News
Percy, a nine-year-old golden doodle, has 33,000 Instagram followers. The Canada Post strike could stop him sending his Christmas cards.
Christmas cards are a cherished annual tradition for Percy, who is covered in blond hair and has 33,000 Instagram followers.
He sends out dozens of them every year — more than 70 last Christmas, each with a personalized message.
But this year, things might be a little different.
With the Canada Post strike stretching into its second week, Percy’s dad isn’t sure when he’ll be able to get all those cards in the mail, or whether they’ll reach their destinations by Dec. 25.
Percy isn’t worried, though. “Cards might be delayed, but that’s okay!” he posted online recently.
“Everypawdy who wants a card will get a card. That’s the Percy PromiseTM!”
Percy is a nine-year-old golden doodle. Percy’s dad is Adam Barrett, a creative content lead at a marketing agency in Halifax who moonlights as a stage parent for his celebrity pup.
Barrett launched Percy’s Instagram account the day he got him, when Percy was just eight weeks old.
