Meet the Fidos of FILO

On a spring day, nothing changes the usual tone of the office like bringing 11 dogs to work for the day. Of course, if anyone walks into the office on a normal day, they are greeted by several dogs that come to work with their guardians. But when canines outnumber employees, you know something special is happening. And the occasion was truly a special one -- it was Dog Day at FILO and the dogs were brought in to help make videos to promote GermanFest. One of the purposes was to highlight the connection between FILO Productions and GermanFest, since many guests of the event do not know the organizers are a St. Paul company and help with events all over the world.

Listed below are the dogs (with guardian in parentheses) and the message from their individual video:

Gogo (Linda) is happy to have Schell’s beer at GermanFest again this year.
CoCo and Victor (Kevin) can communicate with each other throughout the festival with AnCom radios.
Kirby and Buddy (Maddie) want everyone to know that you can bring your friend/"buddy” to the Schmidt Brewery site.
Cubbie and Cooper (Andrew) love how much there is to eat, and can burn off those calories while dancing to the great music on our stage(s).
Penny and Sawyer (Brian) want people to show up early and get a front row seat with them for the cultural presentations.
Petunia (Kristen) and Milkshake (Steve) were happy to make a new friend while finding out they have a lot in common.

A new video will be released each Monday, leading up to GermanFest at FILO’s Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/FILOProductionsInc/) and YouTube page (https://www.youtube.com/user/FILOproductions1810).

Please view the videos and share them with your friends. Because, after all, who doesn’t love watching cute puppy videos on the internet to brighten up the beginning of the week!
