In the Esperanza neighborhood of Mérida, a peculiar four-legged “employee” has conquered the customers’ hearts of the “El Lapicero” stationery store. This is Queeny, a three-year-old mixed-breed dog who, with her charisma and enthusiasm, has become a social media sensation.
Queeny’s story went viral after a video was posted on TikTok by Jaim Gritzewsky, known as the “Dog Photographer.” In the clip, you can see the friendly dog climbing up to the counter to “serve” customers with great enthusiasm, which has caused a wave of tenderness and positive comments from Internet users.
Queeny came to the stationery store when she was a puppy, brought by a customer. Although she was initially adopted by the granddaughter of the business owner, Joaquín, he took care of her upbringing, feeding her with a bottle and providing her with all the necessary care. His is a reflection of his majestic and loving attitude, says the owner.
Queeny’s presence in the stationery store has turned the store into a reference point in the area. Customers and neighbors come not only to buy school supplies but also to greet and mingle with the adorable dog.
The viral video has led to Queeny becoming a local celebrity, proving that love and joy can be found in the most unexpected places. Without a doubt, this faithful companion has made “El Lapicero” a special and welcoming business for all who visit it.
