Candidates submitted should have a keen sense of smell and taste, an understanding of trends and their peers, as well as a proficiency with social media, of course with a supportive pet parent who can serve as their professional camera assistant. Following their appointment in October, the winning dog will remain in the position for one calendar year.
“As a pet parent and the cofounder of Oh Norman!, I always strive to create top quality products that dogs love," said Cuoco. "As we’ve continued to build out the Oh Norman! team, it’s become evident that we need to bring in an expert. By bringing in a dog to serve as our chief treat officer, we are ensuring that every dog has a voice in the process. I am looking forward to working with our new employee who will help ensure our customers are the happiest they can be.”
Applicants will be accepted from June 13 until September 13, 2024, with the winner being announced by Cuoco on Oh Norman!’s Instagram this October, following a public voting period.
Those pet guardians interested in applying on behalf of their dog should plan to do so via the Oh Norman! website and will be required to fill out an application. Applicants must reside in the continental U.S. and are required to submit an original, creative 30-second video explaining why their dog is right for the role. Full rules and regulations as well as submission guidelines can be found at ohnorman.com.
