Then, approximately two years ago, an ordinary trip to Walmart led to an unexpected encounter. Green noticed a dog that looked remarkably like Rusty and began speaking with its owner. That conversation soon placed her on the path to a tiny puppy living in what she described as a \u201cless than desirable situation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The puppy was so small he could fit in the palm of her hand. Green knew she could not leave him behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn the blink of an eye, I went to get this puppy,\u201d she recalled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That puppy was Boo. Although he reminded Green of the companion she had lost, he would quickly develop his own personality and place in her world. Because he was too young and small to remain home alone, Boo began accompanying Green to work from the outset. While this began as a practical arrangement, it soon became an important part of the atmosphere at A+ Title & Escrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From his place at the office, Boo welcomes the people who arrive for closings and other business. Over time, clients, realtors, and visitors have come to expect more than efficient assistance when they walk through the door. Many also look forward to spending a few minutes with Boo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe has become the friend that our clients, realtors \u2014 everyone \u2014 wants to visit with when they come in,\u201d Green said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n His presence offers something especially valuable in a setting where emotions can run high. Real estate transactions involve major decisions, deadlines, and financial commitments. While Boo cannot answer questions about paperwork or guide anyone through closing documents, he can offer a cheerful distraction, a friendly greeting, and a reminder to breathe. A wagging tail or an invitation to play can soften a tense moment and make an unfamiliar office feel more welcoming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Boo particularly enjoys meeting children who are accompanied by their parents. Sitting through an adult conversation can be difficult for young visitors, but Boo is ready to provide entertainment. Green has noticed that children seem to share a special connection with him, and Boo happily takes every opportunity to play with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fetch is among his favorite activities. He also enjoys giving kisses and receiving belly rubs. And like many valued employees, Boo appreciates a good workplace perk, especially when that perk is edible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe can\u2019t forget about treats,\u201d Green said. \u201cHe loves treats!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although Boo is a familiar and loved presence, Green remains mindful that not everyone is comfortable around dogs. If a visitor shows any uneasiness, Boo goes to his kennel. Green said those instances are few and far between, but the practice allows the office to remain welcoming to every client while Boo continues greeting those eager to see him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, the puppy who once fit in Green\u2019s palm has an important job. He reports to A+ Title & Escrow, ready to greet familiar faces, welcome new ones, charm children, and accept treats whenever offered. His resume may be unconventional, but his qualifications are clear \u2014 he plays a dependable game of fetch, offers affection freely, and makes stressful days feel a little lighter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the office\u2019s \u201cambassador of goodwill,\u201d Boo extends a standing invitation of his own. Green said he would happily welcome anyone who wants to stop by and play fetch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At A+ Title & Escrow, successful closings remain the team\u2019s professional goal, but thanks to Boo, visitors may leave with something more than completed paperwork and a set of keys. They may also carry a smile, a little dog hair, and the memory of a greeter whose biggest responsibility is helping people feel at home.
