There’s chill—and then there’s The Dude, the protagonist in the wacky ’90s comedy “The Big Lebowski.” For the right dog, it’s the perfect pet name—which is where The Dude LeBowWowSki comes in.
Doggie dad Josh J. says, “The Dude is really chill—like medically, too chill. He has Addison’s disease, and his body can’t produce the stress hormone cortisol.” His laid-back demeanor makes him an outstanding snuggler, especially on cold nights.
Like the namesake character from the Big Lebowski, The Dudeness understands the importance of a good rug. “He won’t play unless he’s on a rug,” Josh notes. When it came time to protect The Dude from the unexpected—nihilists, for example—Josh luckily had Nationwide pet insurance available in his voluntary benefits at work. “Our most important little dog should have the best care,” he says.
