We currently live in a world dominated by the show, a world in which Instagram and other social networks dictate the pace in a way that no traditional means of communication has ever been able to take in the course of history. If you are not of this opinion, consider the success of a dog named Aspen on Instagram.

It is no secret to anyone that the phenomenon generated by the birth of Facebook is a real revolution: not only has it changed the way of journalism around the world, but it has also given users the opportunity to immortalize themselves in photographs and to feel much more. close to other people, artists, politicians …

You can define a window on the world, through which you can get in touch with any personality, without the need to submit to filters that would prevent the sending of any type of communication.

It must be emphasized that, like any social network that enjoys a certain reach, that is attractive to most people and is also occasionally used by a minority, Instagram has developed a number of trends of its own.

For example, here are the photographs of half-naked women, images of food and cats, the latter being the most present in the animal kingdom.

However, in recent times a beautiful dog has become an authentic phenomenon of this social network, reaching neither more nor less than 130 thousand followers, a response usually reserved for celebrities.

Aspen is a fabulous 4-year-old Golden Retriever who lives in Colorado and who has turned into one of the most followed and loved characters on Instagram, by sharing a series of fun photographs in which he can be seen ice skating, wearing sunglasses or while accompanying his masters on a boat trip.

As you can imagine, he’s not behind the @aspenthemountainpup account management, but his owner Hunter Lawrence, who still can’t believe his dog’s success.

What is most impressive is that this whole story began with a Hunter who was very unenthusiastic about posting photos of his four-legged friend on this social network, until he realized that some of them were pretty cute and funny.

An immediate success

Shortly after some Aspen images were released, his post numbers began to rise rapidly, to the point where it seemed impossible to believe.

Far from being something that was only useful to Hunter and his wife as a pastime and as a method of archiving Aspen’s photos, many users have begun to look at the images and follow the account of the little four-legged friend.

This phenomenon represents like few the safe bet represented by many animals on Instagram, given that, like other topics such as gastronomy and celebrities, the animal kingdom usually gets a lot of public success on this social network.

Of course, Aspen is not the only dog ​​that has achieved great success on social networks. There are others who, in the same way, have managed to become authentic web phenomena. Here are the best known cases:

• Marutaro, a handsome Shiba Inu who is considered to be the happiest dog in the world.
• Marnie The Dog, a Shih Tzu who has 291,000 followers on Instagram.

• Tunameltsmyheart, probably the best known case among the dogs of the social pages. This half-breed Chihuahua is known online for his particular smile, which has made him reach a figure of more than one million followers.

As you can see, even dogs are real protagonists on the net. Aspen is just one of the hundreds that populate social networks. It is hoped that all this will serve to at least raise awareness in favor of their care and protection.
