Hyundai dealership in Brazil has adopted and given a stray dog a new job title in May 2020, after he maintained a daily visit to the shop. At the beginning, the workers at the agency believed that the stray dog’s visit was a temporary thing and they thought that he would eventually leave after finding a better place for himself.

The official account of Hyundai Brazil has shared the images of the ‘pawfessional consultant’ on their Instagram account adding that they only wanted to simply provide the dog refuge, but he started to interact with all the customers entering the place in which the manager agreed to give him a promotion and position.
More dogs should be hired in work places. They are loyal & take their job very seriously. They dont gossip or talk back & easy to train. They are also so much cuter than most grumpy employees!

Emerson Mariano, who is working as the Showroom manager at Hyundai, said to Top Motors Brazil; Tucson’s customer service feedback in the shop has been extremely positive, revealing that the environment in their organization was also improved thanks to the dog’s “very caring and docile nature.”
Tucson Prime now owns his own Instagram page with 170,000 followers from across the world. It has photos of him while working as a salesman and with various customers.
