Who We Are

You Did What With Your Wiener? (YDWWYW) is an award-winning outdoor adventure and travel lifestyle blog that focuses on being active with your small dog.

The blog features me (Jessica) and my two adventurous Dachshunds, Gretel and Summit, and highlights topic such as dog-friendly hiking, getting fit with your pup, pet health and wellness, pet-friendly travel, and reviews.

Through our stories, and thoroughly researched information, I encourage our readers to:

  • Improve the lives of pets and pet parents by being more active with their small dog
  • Create a healthier lifestyle for themselves and their pups
  • Improve the bond with their pets

YDWWYW is honored to have received several peer-voted industry awards of recognition:

We Can Create Content Around Your Brand

By now, you’ve probably heard about influencer marketing.

One-off reviews or product features and reposts of your press releases are old school techniques of the past.

The smartest brands are in search of:

  • Something more memorable and engaging
  • Deeper, more authentic relationships with influencers and audience
  • Higher quality content
  • Blogs promoting less products but in a more substantial way
  • Creative, multi-faceted campaigns.

With an ongoing strategy lasting 3 – 12 months, a blogger’s audience is more likely to trust their recommendation, engage with the brand, and keep the product or service front-of-mind.

YDWWYW has created content on our blog and social media for these brands in the past: Dexas, Pupford, Carlson Pet Prodcts, PetHub, Petsmart, Zuke’s, PawNosh, Ruffwear, HOKA ONE ONE, Sierra Trading Post, Outdoors NW Magazine, and several subscription box companies.

If I think your brand, product, or service is a good match for our audience, please contact Jessica for a current media kit, a no obligation 20-minute strategy session (delivered over phone or email), and custom quote.

Because these campaigns have many layers and are extremely hands-on, there are limited number of spaces available. These spaces typically fill up 3 – 6 months in advance.

Please contact us well before your planned campaign to begin working with us.

Please note, due to the amount of requests and time commitments made to paid sponsors, YDWWYW can no longer write about services or products in exchange for “free product” or “exposure”. On very rare occasions, arrangement can be made to satisfy campaign fees with an equivalent value in products or services.

Who You Will Be Working With Since Dogs Can’t Type or Take Photos

Since Summit and Gretel can’t type, take photos, create and edit videos, and are too young to be on the internet anyway, You will be working with me – Jessica – during our partnership.

I have been blogging and building our community for 10 years, have a masters degree in digital communications, and run my own pet-centric social media consulting company PetTalk Media, and am a coach and mentor to other bloggers.

Because I am business minded, I act professionally and won’t flake on my obligations to you.
