We are two emergent animal and nature related organizations that are seeking marketing professionals to help bring our visions to fruition! A little about our organizations: StubbyDog is a 501c3, whose sole purpose is to disseminate content that will help change public perceptions of pit bulls. Its vision is a world where every pit bull has a good life by helping people rediscover pit bulls as lifelong friends.

Our other organization, Zoe (the Greek word for “life”), seeks to be the preeminent global provider of content for people who care about animals and the environment. Operating as a hybrid integrated media organization, Zoe will come to market first as a website and a book, to be followed by TV and merchandise, along with a charitable arm. Our Founders, the kind of people backing these endeavors, include: Michael Mountain: President & Chief Content Officer – is one of the founders and past President of Best Friends Animal Society – the largest sanctuary for companion animals, the nation’s leading animal rescue organization, and flagship of the campaign to bring an end to the killing of millions of homeless pets in shelters every year. For 15 years, Michael was the (human) face of Best Friends, and also the editor of Best Friends magazine, carrying the vision of “a better world through kindness to animals” to millions of people. As chief-fundraiser ($35 million per year) for the organization, he built a committed, grassroots, even recession-proof membership base. Landon Pollack: Chief Executive Officer – is the managing partner of Ignite Venture Partners, which brings together consulting, capital, and concept incubation to build value in businesses of all sizes and stages, and across industries. Before turning 20, Landon had started four businesses, earning his first million at the age of 13 selling sports memorabilia by mail order.
