If there’s been a sudden spike in smiles around Jumeirah Lake Towers lately, one floppy-eared reason might be behind it. Locals have been stopping mid-walk, phones coming out, voices going all soft - all because of one ridiculously friendly cocker spaniel who seems to have made it his life’s mission to greet every human and dog in sight. His name is Chase, and he’s somehow become the neighbourhood’s most unexpected little celebrity.
According to Khaleej Times, Chase was recently crowned JLT’s very first Chief Dog Officer (CDO) after winning a fun, community-led contest. The idea was to pick a four-legged ambassador who would welcome new pups to the area and show off how pet-friendly the neighbourhood really is.
